This push for academian acceptance by supposed fundamentalist professors has an echo of New Evangelicalism about it. It is a sound that is disturbing to this preacher.

The argument is that Biblical teaching on separation is for the church, and ETS isn’t a church, so it is just fine. Which makes one wonder why those who make that argument believe in a universal church.

But this approach zaps any argument for separation for schools or mission boards It’s hard for me to see any Biblical distinction between platform sharing at ETS and platform sharing at a school. Neither is a church. For that matter, a city-wide evangelistic meeting / crusade isn’t a church, either, is it? Or a World Council of Churches convention…. Might as well go along to the WCC for the “fellowship” with those believers that are there, and maybe you can learn something from the apostates as well. Just like ETS.

No, I don’t get it, either. Ockenga would have loved it. But you are only a lonely troglodyte over there because this lonely troglodyte has opted out of commenting there any further. So I’ll cheer you on here instead. :)
