I saw John Armstrong speak (together with Don Kistler, if I recall correctly) at a conference in the Rochester, NY area. It was a wonderful conference - and John spoke sound, Biblical truth, aiming to help the assembled people see the value of Reformed teaching. That was in 2001 or 2002, and at that time I'd have gladly suggested people read his material and listen to his teaching. Since then, and I'm not sure what prompted it, John has fallen greatly, and is growing steadily more aligned with FV teaching. It is indeed a lamentable transition.
