...from what I have seen and read so far, he seems to be well grounded philosophically, and more importantly he seems to be genuine. And very, very wise! Take a look at what he has to say about church-state relations!
I feel we are blessed in this man. May God ever prosper him!
Thank you so much for writing, dear friend!

Ping to my #94.
I would agree with Jude24's statement: "The issue is where the bounds of "the Church" are."
An apostolic church is more readily identifiable by being in spiritual unity with the apostles than in temporal descent from the apostles.
The true children are not those circumised in the flesh but those whose hearts have been circumcised. That has not changed.
