Brian, I appreciate your heart in setting up a defense against our calls to clear doctrine. Please be aware that this will be a heated issue, and that most of us will lose our heads (myself included). Do not be dissuaded by the emotions that are already running high: stick to the issues, and try to consider the truths presented here objectively. I would further challenge you to try and look at these points of view without a UBF slant, if that is possible. Not to be offensive here, but to allow you the opportunity to be unhindered in your reasoning. When you are heavily involved in a group, it is easy (and it is the objective of cults) to acquire a “groupthink”–to become so ensconed with the unity of the group that you think as one, on a dangerous level. Please try to avoid that. So, fire away. Let the end result of this be a clear exegesis of truth.

Tom”
