Anyone know why FPC Jackson took down the committee report from the MS Valley Presbytery committee on the Federal Vision?

An unprecedented act of sanity?

Godly sorrow that leads to repentance?

Nope. Perhaps they took it down temporarily until they add the footnotes.
And due to the miracle of Google cache, it is still available online:

Well, Ligon told me that he was going to be listening to the tapes very closely and making sure he caught every word. That’s probably why. He has some good stuff to add to it. He digressed with me to Wright’s views on women’s ord and his politics.

The report posted was a précis of a fuller report to be issued at the next MSVP meeting in February. I suspect that they pulled the précis in preparation for posting the full report. It would be great if the full report is improved based on conversations with Steve and careful listening to conference tapes. We’ll see. . . .

That is what is so surreal about this. Does Duncan really believe that the entire Auburn Avenue crowd are weak on opposition to socialism and women’s ordination? Does he think we’re going to start pontificating about the cancellation of 3rd-world debt? Obviously the AAPC crowd consists in far more tolerant people than the PCA “establishment” that LD claims to represent.

well, we can always hope I suppose, but Ligon made it abundantly clear that I was not invited to speak to the committee in order to give me an opportunity to change his views (or those of the committee), I was only brought in to give me an opportunity to state the reasons why I thought their report was wrong. He made it clear at each point that he thought we (Rob Maddox, Dale Peacock, and I) had no real grounds for our objections and no basis for our complaints about their view of our views. Even before our meeting he made it plain that I should not expect any changes in the conclusions of the final committee report and I think we can take him at his
word.
Given this I would assume that they have taken it down to add the footnotes that Guy Waters prepared for the precis’.

Presumably these will be more compelling than Waters’s use of quotations in his book....

Tim, you’re such a nice guy, . . . . and I do love optimism, but in answer to your question let’s just say, by reviewing Waters’ book, you have probably gotten a good feel for what you can expect in his footnotes. . . . . which is to say, . . . . more of the same.

Actually, Tim, the footnotes will give the appearance of scholastic respectability. You can say just about anything as long as you have pretty footnotes.
