36Note,
for instance, that Harold John Ockenga, in his press release
December 8, 1957 (Boston: The Park Street Church), stated,
"The strategy of the New Evangelicalism has changed
from one of separation to infiltration." Two paragraphs
later he said, "The New Evangelicalism is willing to
face the intellectual problems and meet them in the framework
of modern learning. It stands doctrinally upon the creeds
and confessions of the Church and grants liberty in minor
areas when discussion is promoted on the basis of exegesis
of Scripture." Ockenga insisted that the New Evangelicalism
would retain orthodox doctrine but renounce Fundamentalism's
militancy and separatism. The first generation New Evangelicalism
divided from Fundamentalism over separation. Believers who
remain in apostate churches and denominations reflect the
New Evangelical, not the Fundamentalist, philosophy.
History demonstrates that Colson's description is clearly
not an accurate understanding of Fundamentalism.
