What do you think of those who are called this? David Jeremiah, Moody Bible Institute, Billy Graham, etc. etc.

I tend to thing the following definition that is given at http://www.rapidnet.com/~jbeard/bdm/Psychology/neoe.htm is inaccurate.


In general, a neo-evangelical would be defined as one who has taken a "lower view" of Scripture, has developed a more open, inclusivistic spirit toward liberalism, and has become ecumenical in evangelism efforts.

I don't believe that these individuals and institution give a "lower view" of the Scripture nor do I see them as liberal. They may be somewhat ecumenical in their evangelism efforts though.

I personally respect all who have been given this title.

Whereas I cannot speak for Moody Bible Institute, I can state that they since, 1886, have stood for the final authority of the Scriptures, and have a time-tested tradition of teaching young men and women the Bible within a premillenial inerrant, infallible framework. Through their broadcasting network, and publishing arm they have, been used by the Holy Spirit, to call many into a saving living relationship with the Lord and His Son. Much of this blessing by God, goes to a founder who was truly 'sold out' for the Lord of the Word. May God continue to bless MBI, its students, alumni, President Michael Easley and all who support this Godly work!
