Inquiry Committee for Ergun Caner
It appears that Liberty University is forming an inquiry committee to "look into these matters" with respect to Dr. Ergun Caner (link to source). An answer is expected by June 30. Let's pray that God will grant both Dr. Caner and the committee wisdom and grace in dealing with this matter.

Comment Guidelines:
1. Thanks for posting a comment. Without you, this blog would not be interactive.
2. Please be polite. That doesn't mean you have to use kid gloves, but please try not to flame others, even if they are heretics, infidels, or worse.
3. If you insult me, I'm more likely to delete your comment than if you butter me up. After all, I'm human. I prefer praise to insults. If you prefer insults, there's something wrong with you.
4. Please be concise. The comment box is not your blog. Your blog is your blog. If you have a really long comment, post it on your blog and post a short summary of it here.
5. Please don't just spam. It's one thing to be concise, it's another thing to simply use the comment box to advertise.
6. Please note, by commenting here, you are relinquishing your (C) in your comments to me.
7. Remember that you will give an account on judgment day for your words, including those typed in comment boxes. Try to write so you will not be ashamed if it is read back before the entire world.
8. Stay on topic. If your comment has nothing to do with the post, email it to me (my email can be obtained through my blogger profile), or simply don't post it.
9. Don't post as "Anonymous." If you are going to post anonymously, at least use some kind of recognizable "handle," so we can tell you apart from all the other anonymous folks. (This is moot at the moment, since recent abuse has forced me to turn off "anonymous" commenting.)
10. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you; and abstain from doing to others what you would not wish upon yourself.
Wait a minute...didn't LU already exonerate Caner as not having done anything "theologically inappropriate?" What changed?
ReplyDeleteOh, right. The secular media's a knockin' on the door now. "Nuts to the Christian community and those hell-bound Calvinists, but we'd better get our act together for the secular world."
You put it more graciously than I, TF.

I don't wish Dr. Caner any ill. And certainly, we must hear out a matter before we judge.However, he cannot escape the consequences of violating the law and wisdom of our Lord.

Regardless of their final resolution of this matter, the fact that Liberty U. cites reports from the secular media and NOT legitimate concerns over Caner's violation of Biblical standards of personal integrity as the reason for this investigation destroys their Christian testamony. I don't think I could EVER recommend that a young Christian student go to that place.
