The Changing of the Guard: Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia

Founded in 1929 by J. Gresham Machen as the institution to carry on the original Biblical instruction of Princeton Seminary, Westminster Seminary has taught, for the past 25 years, a doctrine of justification by our covenant faithfulness and obedience, rather than by the righteousness of Christ alone imputed to those who believe in him. Dr. Karlberg explains how this defection from the faith occurred.
