[[Liberal Christianity]] or [[Modernism|Theological Modernism]] is a broad term which basically refers to a movement within American Protestant denominations to stress the social role of Christianity, as in the [[Social Gospel]] of the early 20th century. This movement is characterized by a lack of emphasis on or denial of the plenary Divine inspiration and authority of the Bible, and commitment to doctrinal purity. Prevalent Biblical themes such as repentance from personal moral sin, hell and damnation for those who reject Christ, His blood atonement and His future literal reign are minimized, or militated against. In 1937, H. Richard Niebuhr summarized their basic gospel message as preaching that "A God without wrath brought men without sin into a kingdom without judgment through the ministrations of a Christ without a Cross."<ref>The Kingdom of God in America (1937), New York: Harper and Row, 1959, p. 193</ref><ref>[http://www.touchstonemag.com/archives/article.php?id=15-09-011-c The Comforting Doctrine of Hell]</ref>
