Making the Case for Pittsburgh’s Resolution One

[Stand Firm] 5 Nov 2007--From The Rev. Johnathan Millard's presentation to the annual convention of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, in which he makes the case for Resolution One:

1. There is confusion concerning who God is:

Over the past 40 years there has been a drift away from orthodox ways of speaking about God. In some places in TEC instead of God being referred to as Father, Son and Holy Spirit, He is addressed only by function as creator, redeemer and sustainer, and not in personal ways. The problem with this approach is that it makes God more remote and the fact is God has revealed himself to us through the Scriptures not just by function, but in personal terms as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
