“Evangelicalism presumptively acts as if it were the permanently
appointed preserver of ‘the faith once-for-all-delivered’
and specially entrusted with ecclesial keys to the Kingdom.
But no earthly movement holds the Lion of the Tribe of Judah
by the tail. We may need for a season to be encaged in the Lion’s
den until we recover an apostolic awe of the Risen Christ,
the invincible Head of a dependent body sustained by his
supernatural power. Apart from life in and by the Spirit
we are all pseudo-evangelicals.”
