About The Fundamentals
The Fundamentals: A Testimony To The Truth is a set of 90 essays published
from 1910 to 1915 by the Bible Institute of Los Angeles. This one volume
contains all 12 volumes (90) essays of the original work.
The Fundamentals were originally edited by A. C. Dixon and later by Reuben
Archer Torrey. Originally published as a 12-volume set, The
Fundamentals were later condensed to a four-volume set, but retained all 90
essays in their original form. The 90 essays were written by 64 different authors,
representing most of the major Christian denominations.
The essays were designed to affirm, among other things,
conservative Protestant beliefs, especially those of the Reformed tradition, and
defend against ideas deemed inimical to them. They are widely considered to be
the foundation of modern Christian fundamentalism.
The essays were originally financed by Lyman Stewart in 1909 to set out what
they believed to be the fundamentals of Christian faith. These were to be sent
free to ministers, missionaries, Sunday School superintendents and others active
in Christian ministry.
The volumes defended orthodox Protestant beliefs and attacked higher
criticism, liberal theology, Catholicism socialism, Modernism,atheism, Christian
Science, Mormonism, Millennial Dawn, Spiritualism, and evolutionism.
