Will the Theologians Please Sit Down? (Revised Edition)

In the beginning, Christians grasped that the essence of Christianity was an obedient love-faith relationship with Jesus Christ that produced genuine kingdom fruit. But then something happened: Theologians took over God’s church, and the emphasis changed from godly fruit to “orthodox” theology.

In this provocative work, Bercot argues that it’s time to let Jesus speak through the pages of the Gospels without filtering His teachings through the denials and mental gymnastics of the theologians. It’s time for the children of the kingdom to stand up for Jesus and the gospel He preached—and for the theologians to sit down.
