Eminent Protestant professor, Dr. Carl Trueman (Westminster Theological Seminary, Historical Theology and Church History), advises in Reformation 21 (Nov 2005):
"Every year I tell my Reformation history class that Roman Catholicism is, at least in the West, the default position. Rome has a better claim to historical continuity and institutional unity than any Protestant denomination, let alone the strange hybrid that is evangelicalism; in the light of these facts, therefore Yes, that sounds like Trueman. He acknowledges the paucity of his own case with the proviso "at least in the West".If we ignore EVERYTHING except just one bishopric that was a seat of heretics in the early church then Trueman can make his overly melodramatic case. But he himself knows of the ancient church in North Africa, Asia Minor, Middle East and beyond, Byzantium and the Celtic churches. Yes, we do need to know what the BIBLE teaches and in knowing that reject the errors of Romanism. But let's please give up paying homage to the utterly false "historical continuity" of the papacy. In that regard Carl is a Falseman - a wolf in sheep's clothing. |
