These are all the posts imported from my old blog--johannulusdesilentio.blogspot.com.  There's a lot of good stuff there, and also a lot of lame stuff, just like on the new blog, no doubt.  The formatting for expandable post summaries (so that you only saw the first couple paragraphs till you clicked on a post) was lost in the transfer, so you'll have to do a lot of scrolling.  Use the search or the archives on the sidebar to browse.

Ichabod

I know not what to say about the late PCA General Assembly...or rather, I know what I want to say, but I'm not sure of anything I could say right now that would not be guilty of the same divisiveness and disrespect to the body of Christ that I am afraid so many leaders in the PCA have made themselves guilty of.

For now, I recommend a couple links:
Video of the debate (long): http://www.pcaga.com/schedule.asp
R. Scott Clark's blow-by-blow (warning, don't read the rest of the blog unless you want to get so angry you smash your computer screen): http://www.oceansideurc.org/display/ShowJournal?moduleId=993496¤tPage=2
Interesting: http://cantuar.blogspot.com/2007/06/pca-general-assembly-2007-zwinglians.html
Leithart the Magnificent: http://www.leithart.com/

All that's happening brings vividly to mind the impassioned laments of John Henry Newman in Apologia Pro Vita Sua,, which I've been reading this week.

Pro Christi Ecclesia Testamentoque,
