016 Sept 2 2006 Brief response from bro. Genusa to 015?

 

Dear brother Phillips,

> I want to let you know that I have sent my response

> to your 12 questions, and my last email to you, to

> bre.Dale Lee, Bob Widdig, and Freddie Higham.

1) Your book The Doctrine of Fellowship is addressed here: http://www.genusa.com/Truth/TheDoctrineOfFellowship.html

I have posted our correspondence here: http://www.genusa.com/fellowship/JimPhillips_1.html

2)  I have started to answer your responses to my 12 questions here. http://www.genusa.com/fellowship/JimPhillips_Answers.html

These answers are incomplete and only very rough. I spent a full day answering your last email and only a few hours dealing with these questions/responses. I suspect that, based on my history of writing, some salt will need to be removed with further edits. You are not without salt yourself so I ask for your understanding.

3) In going through the responses you made to my 12 questions, and I had seen this before in at least one other email, you have repeatedly accused me of trying to justify myself. I will remind you sir that you wrote an email to me requesting I state my case regarding fellowship and my problems with your book. I think it is perverse to invite me to a discussion of the topic and then to turn around and repeatedly impute self-serving motives in answering your invitation There is, frankly, no one in the Berean or any other fellowship who I seek to be justified in the eyes of. My record of behavior in contending for what I believe in speaks for itself. I consider Bob Widding and Dale Lee old friends and trust that whatever error they believe I hold will be put in the greater context of who I am which my experiences and history with them provides.  You, I believe, have made a big miscalculation, in more than one way. My concern is "what is truth" and I took your invitation up on that basis. You have misjudged my motives and my character and I ask that you stick to the doctrinal topic in any further communications.
