It seems that today a lot of people don't like to believe that they're sinners. There's been an argument that Pelagian theology is becoming prevalent in American "Christianity"
The first video from the White Horse Inn deals with the historical heresy of the British monk Pelagius (circa 354-420/440). Although it's addressed in greater detail in this video, Pelagius denied the doctrine of original sin and believed that one can make a choice to be either good or evil. This brought him into conflicts with Augustine of Hippo, as noted.
The second program from the White Horse Inn tracks the Pelagian and semi-Pelagian entrances into modern American Christianity. It particularly deals with the Pelagian tendencies of nineteenth century revivalist Charles G. Finney (1792-1875).
