Let's try this again.

I confess, I am very, very tired of the gossip machine in Christian academia.

I really do not know how people have the time for it, really. I can barely keep up with all I am trying to do. Maybe preaching regularly helps to keep you out of it? ...

In any case, any person with an iota of seriousness about them could easily determine the truthfulness of this situation, but alas, so many do not care.

So let me say it again: I have stood in the minority Reformed stream for decades in confessing the Son to be ...

αυτοθεος, autotheos, God in and of Himself. This can be documented in my debates and DLs for many years.

You can go back to the summer of 2016 when the EFS controversy broke, and you will hear my stand plainly stated there, and since then.

There is no reason, ...

whatsoever, for anyone, let alone a self-professed Christian scholar, to be confused on this topic, let alone to bear false witness concerning me. The record is clear, plain, and unambiguous.

I cannot stop those in the halls of academia from misrepresenting me, however, ...

we reach a LOT of students, and prospective students, and they may well have ears yet to hear. And when they hear their professors speaking untruthfully, it has an impact. It really does.

So, for the record: I have never, not once, not briefly, EVER, held to EFS, ERAS, etc.; I do not NOW hold to EFS or any variant thereof.

Anyone who says otherwise is at best misinformed, and is at worst engaging in bold faced falsehood.

Fini.
