In The Truth War, prolific author John MacArthur maintains that modern Christians music continue to believe the truth revealed through Jesus Christ in Scripture. Building his case largely on the book of Jude, a stern warning that the church was facing false teachings and heresies, he and describes the traditional evangelical explanation of what constitutes true belief.
In every generation, many false teachers have in various ways hidden the truth of the gospel from Christians under their care. Today it often comes in the form of churches jumping from one popular culture trend to another, trying to be so inclusive and make visitors feel comfortable that they lose sight of how Jesus so deliberately made his hearers uncomfortable.
Many differences in belief and practice between one church and another are not worth bickering about. The whole concept of absolute truth and absolute standards. The basic truth of the gospel is worth standing up for. Some leaders, claiming to be evangelical Christians, even proclaim that God is some kind of unknowable force operating in the universe. No church can proclaim that message or other false teachings and remain true to scriptural revelation.
The Truth War sorts out the differences between Scriptural truth and various attractive falsehoods being taught in some churches today. MacArthur compares them not only with Scripture, but with comparable apostasies in past generations and their outcome.
