EDITORIAL . . . .By E. C. CASE
Several months ago, your editor received an e-mail message from Dr. Jack B.
Scott commending Concerned Presbyterians for the efforts we are making in
attempting to alert the Church to the modernist tendencies most obvious in the
current debate over the days of Genesis one. We were most gratified to hear
from our former professor and quickly communicated to him our desire to have
him write something for our publication. Some weeks back, we had the
opportunity to visit with Dr. Scott in person, and were most impressed with his
recounting of how, in his estimation, the PCA has so quickly turned from the
course that he and others who joined in her founding thought they had set for
her. Once again, we asked him to write for us, and he agreed to do so. A couple
of weeks later, we received the article which is printed in this edition of the
newsletter. At that time, we had not seen the report which had been presented
by the President of Covenant Seminary. Nor were we aware of the fact that
Concerned Presbyterians and our publication had been mentioned in a somewhat
less than favourable way in that report, though we suspected something of this
nature when we started getting e-mail messages from several people indicating
that we must be doing something right. (Someone once said, 'You are honoured by
your friends and distinguished by your enemies.' We are very distinguished.)
Finally, a few days after receiving Dr. Scott's article, we did receive a copy
of the report and thus were able to read for ourselves of Covenant Seminary's
coming out of the closet, so to speak, on the six day creation issue. We are
most grateful to Dr. Scott for writing the response to President Chapell, and
thankful to God for this dedicated servant of His who is still willing and able
to fight the good fight of faith and stand for the truth in the never-ending
battle against error and apostasy.
