Our ministry to Steven, in other words, has not been conducted at the expense of any children in our church community, or in a way that puts any of them at risk.

“Unfortunately, Diotrephes has an online discipleship training program, and his imitators are everywhere.”
The intention, laid out for us in Scripture, is for the institutional Church to receive the apostles, their emissaries, and their letters. When we get their letters, we in the Church are supposed to open them up and do what they say. Unfortunately, Diotrephes has an online discipleship training program, and his imitators are everywhere. Moreover, his imitators and heirs are, just like he was, entrenched in the Church.

“From the very beginning the Christian faith has had to deal with imposters who gain control of the governmental mechanisms of the church”
From the very beginning the Christian faith has had to deal with imposters who gain control of the governmental mechanisms of the church, doing so in order to undermine the entire point of the Church. Think, for example, of Diotrephes, who would put out of the church anybody who had even voted in favor of receiving emissaries of the apostles (3 John 9–10). That man had control of the perks of preeminence, he had control of the minutes and file cabinets, he had control of the office keys. The only thing He didn’t have was control of the Spirit. The Spirit blows where He wills.

Isn’t “a ‘strong’ cult”
“[Christ Church isn’t] a ‘strong’ cult. . . I don’t control people or anything like that.”

“I pledge to conduct myself in such a way that no one could ever question my loyalty to the peace and purity of Christ Church.”
Commitment to Loyalty
I pledge to conduct myself in such a way that no one could ever question my loyalty to the peace and purity of Christ Church. This includes refusing to speak to any unauthorized person about grievances I might have, and includes refusing to hear any such criticisms as well. If commitment to this standard in any way compromises my conscience, then I understand that my resignation will be accepted, without notice, and without prejudice.Douglas Wilson

Guys who defend the way Douglas Wilson talks to me & other women: Would you be okay with someone talking to your wife or daughter that way?

Many men adamantly defend Doug Wilson when he blames me for my own childhood rape. What if the table was turned? https://t.co/66hGw1Q8WB
