The Columbia Tradition
Writing during Columbia Seminary’s move to Atlanta, William Childs Robinson argues that the true “Columbia tradition” is not tied to buildings or location but to unwavering commitment to Christ and his Word. Robinson urges Columbia Seminary to remain firmly committed to historic Presbyterian orthodoxy: rooted in Scripture, Calvinism, and loyalty to Christ.
The Present Situation in the Presbyterian Church
In this article, published in Christianity Today in May of 1930, J. Gresham Machen argued that the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. was experiencing a profound theological crisis driven by the rise of Modernism and a growing unwillingness to defend historic Christian doctrine. He contended that doctrinal compromise, vague appeals to unity, and tolerance of unbelief within the church had weakened its witness and undermined institutions such as Princeton Seminary. While deeply critical of the church’s drift, Machen called evangelicals to face the situation honestly, support faithful institutions, and continue contending courageously for the truth of the gospel.
