Abstract
A fourth false argument for the modern theory of open questions is the appeal to certain points of doctrine in which former teachers recognized for their orthodoxy have erred. Those who advance this argument justify it in the following manner: In previous eras certain teachers of our Church entertained divergent opinions without being accused of heresy or denied church-fellowship by their fellow-Christiana.
