Theology isn't like geometry. When it acts that way, theological disaster is sure to follow. Much of contemporary revival theology has embraced such geometric, logically-forced systematics. Deducing everything from this narrow notion of human freedom excludes the core of Christian faith: original sin, the imputation of Christ's righteousness, the substitutionary atonement, and the omniscience of God.
By starting with the definition of freedom as the "power of contrary choice," contemporary revivalism theology is forced ultimately to deny nearly the whole defining body of Christian faith: original sin, unregenerate man's moral inability, the imputation of Christ's righteousness in justification, the substitutionary atonement for sin, and the moral and intellectual infinity, perfection, and immutability of God.
