(Tim) A few people have asked me for my impressions of Bryan Chapell's impressions of the wisdom of General Assembly last year in its decision not to have more talk about why Scripture's doctrine of sexuality is hopelessly outdated and wrong. Oh, alright; proponents of the talk did refer to it as a "study committee." And no one actually said Scripture was wrong--that's just my own take on the debate.
Amazing how cheeky these guys are. They just keep coming back, demanding that we listen to them and their friends. Especially One Friend who just this once will remain nameless on this blog.
So Bryan is disappointed in the Assembly's wisdom, in their "no." It's such a harsh word...
so lacking in grace.
"Whether we are talking about a local church or the entire denomination, a refusal to listen to half of the body because we have the votes to end the discussion is not healthy long- term."
I'm still trying to figure out why byFaith asked for Bryan's impressions rather than Fred Greco's or Mark Robinson's or Dominic Aquilla's or Ken Pierce's or Andy Webb's? It's just that One Man and his friend, Bryan, and their favorite jouster, Lig Duncan. Over and over again.
Really, if Richard Doster wants to build byFaith's circulation, it would help him to know that, across the PCA, most of us would find the impressions of almost any other men much, much more interesting.
