The Affirmation Statement only tells a minister to affirm two of the 23 articles of Faith. However, the Westberg Resolution as a whole seems to point to the Articles of Faith as whole being "affirmable".

It reads:



As HarleyPreacher has stated a preacher is not obligated to preach against jewelry or pants. He can also preach that salvation happens at repentance since the Fundamental Doctrine and other articles to not spell out the New Birth.

In signing the affirmation statement, ministers also affirm to actively preach and teach their disapproval of televisions in the homes of their people. They also affirm not contend about views open to interpretation like pants, jewelry, and salvation. But, the recent committee appointed by the General Superintendent has done just this. In the end, many of the men and women that sign this document are made to be liars.

Some have argued that by contending for a particular view, Westberg, was contending against the binding validity of the unity statement.

Who and What is the committee appointed by the General Superintendent?
