Well, you know David Engelsma is just a foolish fundamentalist and a "hyper-Calvinist". Nothing he says is to be taken seriously just on that basis alone. Do not bother reading his remarks. As if using the ad hominem fallacy justifies dismissing the legitimate arguments of a Reformed scholar out of hand?
The compromisers would instead have us listen to the false popes and false teachers who lead people into "cunningly devised fables". (Cf. 1 Tim. 1:4; 1 Tim. 4:7; 2 Tim. 4:4; Tit. 1:14; 2 Peter 1:16). Mike Horton recently published a systematic theology called, The Christian Faith. (See my review here: A Critical Review). In that book he applauded the neo-orthodox view of C. S. Lewis that Scripture is an "inspired story" or "inspired myth" but tries to soften the implications of such compromise by saying that it is also "fact". But calling the inspired and infallible Scriptures an inspired "myth" or "story" is a falsehood no matter how a theologian tries to spin it.
