As ministers of various churches and denominations we recognise that the churches we belong to, and the church in general, have not always been places of welcome for the word of God (Bible). Indeed the church has often been profoundly hardhearted to the Bible's message. For these things we apologise, whatever the distinctive of our Christian position on human responsibility – to which we remain committed. We are deeply sorry and ask for the forgiveness of God himself. We long that the church would be a place of welcome for God's word and commit ourselves to pursuing faithful obedience.
We ARE a group of Christian ministers who voluntarily and individually bring this apology.
We ARE NOT official representatives of our churches or denominations.
We ARE NOT making a statement on the biblical position on biblical authority.
We ARE recognising the lack of honesty, integrity and obedience with which the churches have handled the revealed word of God.
