I suppose I am slower than I should be once again, but the following is a link to several very important documents released by the Board of Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia. These documents can be found at the WTS website. They include:
- Statement from the Chairman of the Board
- Precis for the Historical and Theological Field Committee (HTFC) (recently added to the pdf document)
- Preface to the Historical and Theological Field Committee
- Historical and Theological Fied Committee Report (HTFC)
- Precis to the Hermeneutics Field Committee (HFC) (recently added to the pdf document)
- Preface to the Hermeneutics Field Committee’s Reply
- Hermeneutics Field Committee’s Reply to the HTFC (HFC)
- Edgar-Kelly Motion
- Minority Report
- “‘The Infallible Rule of Interpretation of Scripture’: The Hermeneutical Crisis and the Westminster Standards”
You can access these documents here. Dr. Lillback’s essay ‘The Infallible Rule of Interpretation of Scripture: The Hermeneutical Crisis and the Westminster Standards” looks particularly interesting.
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve. (Romans 16:17-18)
