Thank you for the opportunity of replying to Stuart Olyott's response to our three articles, and we are grateful for his gracious comments.
There are only two areas that we think it necessary to take up.
Hounded out?
The first concerns Stuart's pastoral models. He suggests that if a man is truly faithful in exposing error and demanding action he will soon be hounded from his denomination. This is just not true. In most denominations it is virtually impossible for a man to be expelled, which is part of the problem, and such a man will normally be tolerated however much fuss he causes. We know men in just this position.
