Special
Note
The opinions and views
expressed in public lectures
to the Society are not
necessarily the views of the
Society committee, nor do they
necessarily wholly reflect the
Society's stance. They are
simply deemed to be worthy of
presentation for members
and others to consider,
evaluate, respond to, etc. A
careful effort is made to
ensure that all lecturers do
not promote or defend any
doctrinal view contrary to our
statement of Christian faith.
In such cases where views are
expressed that are contrary to
our beliefs, this is allowed
for so that a critique of
erroneous doctrines can be
presented. Our statement of
faith can be viewed at: http://www.christian-apologetics.org/html/We_believe.htm
