I believe the HSR and the direction of the CRC after Synod 2022 and 2023 was a coupe orchestrated by the very same group that fought, lost and are still bitter over the Women in Office debate. When a group of delegates lobby each other on voting a certain way and then making it confessional, the writing is on the wall. In my former CRC, I and all those who cannot sign the new covenant of office bearer statement without reservation are not eligible for office. Soon, every delegate to Synod must support Synod’s decision to attend, effectively silencing those who have a different understanding. The women in office will be back on the docket very soon and withdrawn. As one pastor (Lloyd), who represented the Abide movement was quoted in a YouTube broadcast, “our side did very well at Synod, but there is more work to be done”
