When the delegates meet at the General Assembly there will be three major concerns.
To honor and respect the church’s past and those who have worked and sacrificed

it needs to go.
3. To rely on the Holy Spirit to direct the decision makers on how best to move into the

One of the old hymns of the church is: Faith of Our Fathers, yes our fathers and our mothers did have faith and we need to respect that… living still, some of that faith was not fully informed and that’s where the next line causes us trouble… we will be true to thee till death. We should not be holden to their faith where it was misdirected, mixed with myth and wholly set in the culture of their time. Thus the challenge of the General Assembly. .
