Response

At Edinburgh and within the Free Church Offices there on Wednesday 18th June 1997 the Training on the Ministry and Admissions Committee of the Free Church met and was constituted.

Inter Alia
The Committee took up consideration of a communication dated 21st April 1997 from Mr. P. Mansbacher, together with the Executive recommendation that in view of the selective and random compilation of quotations in Mr. Mansbacher's document "The Professor, his vows and the Bible", and in view of the finding of the 1997 General Assembly regarding Professor Donald Macleod, the Committee pass from this correspondence. It was moved, seconded and agreed that In view of the findings of the 1997 General Assembly regarding petitions from Mr. Mansbacher, the Committee resolve that he has no locus in bringing these matters to their attention. They pass from them and return his papers to Mr. Mansbacher. From that finding Mr. A. Morrison dissented.
