Well, I listend pretty closely and the one question that matters was not answered, unless the quote from Stehpanas and the quote about the Apostles Creed are indications....

Hey - just for clarity - I didn't quote anything.
I just made some tongue-in-cheek commentary.
But, like all humour, my remarks have some element of truth: "Phoenix here we come!"
He was unapologetically standing behind the young leaders and uncompromisingly supporting the current direction of the church.

Well JT, the start of this tHread is all about some of his staff baptizing people in the titles and doing the sign of the cross in catholic (read anglican?) fashion...
He didnt denounce this. He didnt state the church would continue along its historical line by baptizing in Jesus Name.
He didnt address it. outside of standing behind the new guys from different traditional backgrounds, pointing out he was sending them to siminary (anglican) and pointing to the Apostles Creed.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Maker of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell. [See Calvin]
The third day He arose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
the holy catholic church;
the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins;
the resurrection of the body;
and the life everlasting.
Amen.
I remember that from when I was a catholic
catholic means universal btw

Ok. I thought that was what you were talking about, but I didn't wanna just think I was right. If he, DS, doesn't see a difference in Jesus name baptism and FSH baptism then he may not have addressed it because he may not think it is an issue. But when he said that people might leave that might have been his way of addressing that or those types of things.
