Yelling At My Windshield, Part 12

Sharing Options

Dr. Hywel Jones begins his lecture by noting that in the weeks and months to come, some of us on the other side will “cry foul.” And that is precisely what I have been doing in these posts — crying foul. Dr. Jones goes on to say that when someone is struck under the fifth rib, this is precisely the response we should expect from them.

But the problem is not that we have been struck, it is that we have been struck by people who manifestly have not done their homework. There are times when a blow under the fifth rib should arouse a concern about a foul blow. Joab and Abner come to mind.

I don’t think our discussion partners at the Ft. Lauderdale colloquium understood us. But I will say this — they labored to understand us. The results of that labor can be found here. But this is simply not the case with our critics at Westminster West — and it shows. The tragedy is that I believe that both Dr. Horton and Dr. Godfrey have the wherewithal to understand us. Had that labor been invested the way it ought to have been, this conference would not have been the standing embarrassment to the seminary that it is.
