[1] ARPTalk Issue #62 Explores Biblical Usage of “Wolf” – Demonstrating that the Retiring 218th ARP Synod Moderator was Howling up the Wrong Exegetical Tree

In ARPTalk Issue #62, editor the Rev. Dr. Chuck Wilson analyzes the biblical usage of the word “wolf”, the term used in a sermon by outgoing ARP Moderator Andy Putnam delivered 5 June 2012 at the opening worship service of the 218th Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church (ARP) synod meeting. In the sermon titled “Wolves,” Putnam described as “wolves” those who want to disrupt the unity of the ARP Church. 

Dr. Wilson clearly demonstrates that the “wolves” referenced in the sermon text Acts 20:28-31 refer to false teachers that teach a way to God other than Jesus and who deny and devour the clear teaching of the Bible, not to those who speak prophetically to those in power, and not to those who critique denominational leaders and denominational institutions.

[2] Reformed Church in America 2012 General Synod Appoints New Committee to Study Issues of Homosexuality; Removes “Conscience Clause” from Book of Church Order Regarding the Ordination of Women

A 27 June 2012 article by Michael Gryboski in The Christian Post titled “Reformed Church Appoints ‘New Committee’ on Homosexuality” reports that the Reformed Church in America (RCA) 2012 General Synod meeting since 21 June 2012 at the Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights, Illinois, on 25 June appointed a new committee to develop plans for the RCA to deal with issues related to the RCA position on homosexuality.

In another 27 June 2012 article titled “Reformed Church Removes ‘Conscience’ Exemption for Women’s Ordination,” Mr. Gryboski reports that the RCA 2012 General Synod voted to remove from the RCA Book of Church Order provisions that specified when someone could and could not refuse to participate in the ordination of women.
