Roger Williams Fellowship

I find it disturbing, frustrating, and disgusting that I cannot find anywhere, never mind on an obvious site such as this, a complete library of Roger Williams writings. You should have them listed front and center on your home page and published in complete and unabridged form. Does a judge not keep the Constitution at hand? A priest the Bible? Where are the original words of Williams? WTF is going on here? Your well meaning extrapolations are not impressive. Publish the source in it's entirety. That's why we're here, right?

Dr. Scholer does an excellent job, sharing the appropriate tensions that one faces when one holds to such core values as Biblical authority and soul freedom. What his letter fails to do is to answer a very basic question: "At what point has soul freedom moved beyond the boundaries of orthodoxy and into a sphere in which the Kingdom's ministry and integrity has been compromised." I realize that many of our friends from "the other side" have raised what seems be ridiculous questions as, "If a church elected to practice openly barbaric acts in the name of 'soul freedom', would a response be shared?" However absurd such questions may be, they deserve a response on philisophical grounds alone. After all, one could argue that the murdering of abortion providers is a matter of 'soul freedom' also, as ridiculous as that might sound. I have yet to see a resposne that fully addresses the question, "At what point do we cross the line?". The normal response to this question is, "We must learn to live in tension." Yet, such a response fails to deal with the issue at hand. I invite your response to a question that, while appearing to be philiosphical, carries profound implications.
