Why we need a word like “irregular”

Leave a reply

So here it is again. No one in Louisiana Presbytery has ever brought charges, and the way was open for them to do so. Steve has repeatedly implored anyone to bring charges if they believed that he was in violation of the PCA’s standards. No one has done so. This is not because the entire presbytery is in Steve’s back pocket — seven members of the presbytery filed a complaint with the SJC regarding him. But the advantage of a complaint like this is that it requires someone else to do the heavy lifting. Those members of the Louisiana Presbytery who thought Steve was out of compliance with the Westminster Confession should have filed charges, and then made their case. Instead, they waited until the dogpile was safely mounded before they jumped on it.

So it appears likely that a number of the members of Louisiana believe that charges against Steve would be fine, so long as somebody else does it. This is not how things are supposed to operate. This is why words like irregular were invented.
