Letter to be Read to Faculty from Kuschke and Jack Miller—3rd Faculty Meeting at WTS Re: Shepherd

Hewitson, Page 40

“The first discussion was occasioned by the fact that one of our students, in his examination for licensure in a presbytery, had stated that justification is by faith and by works. The second faculty discussion was occasioned by the fact that another WTS student, when examined in another presbytery, had stated that justification is by faith and works.” (Page 40)

The faculty considered the letter from Kuschke and Jack on May 21, and failed to adopt the recommendation by a vote of nine to one. (Page 41)

Jack and Kuschke requested for a “committee on inquiry” with the authority to “recommend to the Board that any line of teaching which seems to imply justification by works should not be continued."
