What the general attack against Christianity like in today’s culture and society?  There is quite the postmodern feel with much of the rejection and animosity to Christianity today.  This short booklet describe this threat and also calls believers to be faithful to the truth of the Biblical faith.  This is written by Erroll Hulse who is a Reformed Baptist pastor in England who have authored many books and articles including Reformation Today magazine although this is the first time I have heard of him and read any of his writing.

I appreciated Hulse writing this and that Chapel Library published this.  Short and perhaps too brief, no matter what era and time period Christians are called to be faithful to the Gospel no matter what the manifestation of unbelief looks like.  The book begins with a six page introduction before going over the four aspects of Postmodernism that Erroll Hulse identified.  These are language deconstructionism, moral relativism, religious pluralism and existentialism.

I think the booklet could have gotten into more details for each one of these four points could be its own book.  I did wished the author could have quoted more primary sources of Postmodernists.  Still the book does capture the general overall spirit of people in society today in how they think and also how they dismiss Christianity.  I appreciate the author’s call to the readers to be biblical and faithful to God.  Some of the materials in this booklet could be dated such as the author’s discussion of how Television is a vehicle that has advance Postmodernism and a lot of unbiblical worldview.  Today the Internet far exceed that of the threat and risk posed by television.  In fact reading this book one can argue things have gotten even worst.

Overall I recommend this booklet.  The call to be faithful to God’s truth and to evangelize against the grain of culture is one that is a much needed exhortation.
