See here, the relevant portion is on page 9. | Some interesting quotes from Sproul, Sr. Quote:
I've been working with the elders of the church I pastor which is independent, and I've been trying to lay the groundwork for three years for this church to come into the PCA. After this action, there's not a great deal of zeal among elders for that.
Why would your elders not be interested in joining the PCA?
My elders are fearful that the PCA is politically-oriented, rather than ministerially- or theologically-oriented.
...
Some have suggested that the issues were raised by fears to protect the fragile balance of power in Westminster Presbytery.
…
I believe that there are a lot of people who embrace the Reformed faith, but very few have a passion to propagate it. R. C., Jr., and I do. That makes us zealots, and gets us in trouble with those who don't want to rock the boat.
...
[On the subject of RC, Jr's views on incense] You know, Calvin was more concerned about worship than he was about justification.
