I had intended to cover more than one topic today. Failed miserably. We spent the first half an hour with Pastor Tom Buck who was at the Q&A session of the Shepherd's Conference yesterday and was able to give us a first-hand report on his impressions of what took place. Then we played a major portion of the Q&A, interacting with the statements as they were made, seeking to understand why Dr. Mohler responded as he did, the relevance of the questions, etc. Though I sought to be fair and balanced and gracious, I am sure many will find reason to dislike my comments. But, my hope is simply to bring some background and some light to a confusing situation. 1:56 in length!

Troubling Thank you for posting this. The truth about compromise within “big eva” needs to be understood by the lowly saints watching. Appreciate your response & God bless.

Awakening to Wokeness, Who is Guarding the Flock? Sheep are being scattered and wounded and wolves have entered, divided the flock. Hirelings seek to preserve their institutional employment and reputations despite the casualties. There should not be any fear of "devouring our own" when it's happening already. Those holding to truth are being attacked & devoured daily. Bad shepherds are not defending the sheep but giving cover to wolves. The politically minded vs. the scripturally minded is becoming clear. "The fear of man brings a snare". Phil J. played the man and confronted the problem directly. "Who me? Don't tell me how to keep watch. I'm a good old shepherd", say the institutional hirelings. Divisions are good and necessary sometimes to preserve the truth. The wolves are already doing it anyway.

Great Sermon! We must be very careful not to devour our own. Not doing it our way doesn't mean we don't see the threat and are not fighting against it.
James White's and others open attack is a valid option.
Others calculated activities that are behind the scenes is another way. We will destroy ourselves if we expect that our way is the only way to be faithful.
We need each other. One faith, one church, one baptism.
