Chicago Declaration e-bog

"e;Someday Christian historians may write that the most significant church-related event of 1973 took place last week at the YMCA Hotel on S. Wabash."e;--Chicago Sun-Times, December 1, 1973"e;While the rest of American Protestantism was enjoying the annual festival of orgy and guilt, [forty] or so evangelical Christians were making their way to Chicago to take part in marathon discussions which could well change the face of both religion and politics in America."e;--Christian Century, December 19, 1973"e;This new concern is more enduring than that of the liberals because it is more strongly grounded on biblical imperatives."e;--George Cornell, Associated Press Columnist"e;I could identify with most of the recent Chicago Declaration . . . I think we have to identify with the changing of structures in society and try to do our part."e;--Billy Graham in Christianity Today, January 3, 1974"e;If the movement sustains itself long enough to have engagements with the churches that produced its leaders, we may see something more significant than the now-passing 'Jesus freakism' or the ongoing Pentecostal-charismatic movements. Out of this, people might be fed, the law might be rendered justly, and America might relocate itself in the world. One can dream."e;--Martin E. Marty, in Context, March 15, 1974
