Sounds to me like Hutchins' "doctorate" has about as much credibility as Fred Foster's.
Maybe our old Bible school mate Jim Griffin could comment here since he is a spokesman for the NCO.
My hat is off to Jim as a oneness pentecostal with REAL academic credentials since leaving JCM.
Jim has a juris doctorate from South Texas College of Law in Houston ... one of the most revered law schools in the state of Texas.
My personal feelings is the title "New Church Order" is a bit lame and unoriginal.
Has anyone ever commented that it is just a spin off of Pro 'Rasslin?
In one long-running script - Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage etc. were part of the NWO ... New World Order ... with the black T-shirts, etc.
In some ways it's like Mozart playing "Achy-Breaky Heart" for Kenneth Phillips to be associated with a weak rip-off of an organizational name from a staged pro wrestling comedy sideshow.
