The Fundamentalist-Modernist controversy

The Fundamentalist-Modernist controversy is the story of the twentieth century struggle to preserve the historic Christian faith. The extremist takes the Bible to be the expression of God. He is addressed as a 'Fundamentalist for the reason that he accepts the base philosophy of the Christian faith. A Modernist takes himself to be a Christian, though he accepts the new divinity, a social faith, and discards the large doctrines of the gospel as being trivial theories.

The Fundamentalist interest group was represented in the American Council of Christian Churches and the International Council of Christian' Churches, and their ' demanded for an indisputable Twentieth Century Restoration.
