The divisions in both church and state were undoubtedly Satanic, having threatened to derail the progress of the Assembly and having, from the standpoint of history, completely overshadowed the Westminster Assembly. There's something pernicious about Robert Schuller that is not so pernicious about Charles Stanley. While I disagree with both, I fully expect to meet Stanley in glory, while I fully expect to see Schuller revealed as anti-Christ. The role of the civil magistrate has been abdicated by the North American government in this regard. Given such, we are left with ecclesiastical anarchy rather than liberty of conscience.
Heresy is a meaningless term without the ability to authoritatively pronounce such.
We in the North American church have lost the ability to objectively declare Schuller and Tilton to be heretical, and to have any authority in doing so. I'm not sure that this lost authority can be regained with the current governmental system.
