...the essence of theological liberalism is in allowing Christian thinking and living to be shaped by society's views and values, rather than by biblical revelation. ...
... Evangelicals have allowed their theology to be shaped by the economic preferences of materialistic contemporaries rather than by Scripture.
To do so is to fall into theological liberalism.
--Ronald J. Sider, "An Evangelical Theology of Liberation", Piety and Politicsz: Evangelicals and Fundamentalists Confront the World (1987), edited by Richard John Neuhaus and Michael Cromartie, pp. 158-159
