go_tribe,

Yes, this is a positive thing but it only goes to prove the point since those who drafted that document are of the same mind as myself, i.e., the DENOMINATION as a whole has not dealt with these heresies in a prudent nor timely matter nor has it addressed the individuals who are promoting them within the denomination. This has been going on for years. Consequently, the longer the denomination(s) drags its feet, the more opportunity these men have of teaching their heresies and infecting the churches, schools and seminaries with it. If history repeats itself, one can expect that by the time the PCA and other denominations affected by this problem get around to actually doing something about it, the damage done will be irreversible.

For those who have decided to form a new denomination, I see them as having made a judgment call. They are not willing to wait until the very end when things will have gotten to the point of no return and a split would be inevitable. My personal feeling is that they have made a good choice. As an aside and my personal observation, this is but yet another example where the Presbyterian form of government looks good on paper but in reality it doesn't work.

In His grace,
