CTCR Response to Expressions of Dissent
The CTCR has received a number of letters and statements from members of the Synod expressing dissent from doctrinal resolutions adopted by the Synod. Some of these letters and statements contain expressions of dissent from more than one doctrinal position and/or resolution of the Synod. Others contain expressions of dissent that echo concerns raised by other dissenters. The majority of these expressions of dissent deal with one or more of the following issues as they have been officially addressed by the Synod in convention:
1. Participation in Civic Events.2. Ecclesiastical Supervision and Dispute Resolution.3. The Service of Women in Congregational and Synodical Offices.4. Laymen Performing Functions of the Pastoral Office.
Because these various expressions of dissent are directed toward one or more of these specific issues, and because many of them voice similar concerns and employ similar arguments, the CTCR has prepared the following composite response to these expressions of dissent.
