Description
In 1994, two debates appeared in the pages of Guardian of Truth between Tom M. Roberts and Vance E. Trefethen, discussing the role of elders and whether women should be present in the business meetings of the local church. The propositions discussed were the following:
Proposition #1 – The Scriptures teach that the pattern of decision-making in matters of congregational judgment must always include the whole church (including women) under male leadership in all local churches (both with and without elders).
Affirm: Vance E. Trefethen. Deny: Tom M. Roberts.
Proposition #2 – The Scriptures teach that the elders of a local church are authorized to assemble privately to make decisions in matters of judgment for the local church before and without calling together the whole congregation.
Affirm: Tom M. Roberts. Deny: Vance E. Trefethen.
