Hermano Paul,
I confess - I do like reading Robbins; he can be quite entertaining and usually has some good insights. I would certainly fall on his side of the issue concerning the current Auburn Avenue controversy involving Wilson, Schlissel, Barach, Wilkins, etc. I would certainly caution new and/or undiscerning Christians from wandering around the Trinity Foundation website haphazardly. But I would caution the same persons to be even [u:a609a4cd54]more[/u:a609a4cd54] discerning about wandering around the Covenant Media Foundation website. On their homepage, they are currently offering "The Federal Vision: A Collection of Essays on the Covenant", "Reformed" Is Not Enough: Recovering the Objectivity of the Covenant", "Against Christianity", and "The Call of Grace": all of which, in the opinion of many (ask Fred, for instance), undermine the doctrine of Justification By Faith Alone. So while this certainly is a bifurcation, I would rather have a defective apologetic than a defective view of justification. Wouldn't you agree?
I too have read those articles by Michael Sudduth on Clark, which to my knowledge remain unanswered by the Clarkians. Do you have any idea why Michael Sudduth pulled his articles on Clark from his website? Luckily,er, I mean Providentially(!) I have some hardcopies somewhere that I printed when I first read them.
