Brown when I was in seminary, in the late 1960s. His "Protest of a Troubled Protestant" sounded the alarm at what was happening in the "Mainline" denominations, including the one to which I then belonged, the now-apostate Episcopal Church (which I left in 1972 when I saw how thoroughly they had rejected the authority of the Bible). Later, when I asked my brother, The Rev.Dr. Peter R. Doyle, who knows a great deal about church history and systematic theology, which book I should read on the history of doctrine, he said, "Heresies," by Brown. So, I bought it a couple of years ago and have been slowly going through this detailed examination of heresies and the truths which were stated more clearly in respoonse to them. I am glad you had a chance to study with this man, whom I never had the privilege of meeting. May his memory and his writings inspire us to be valiant for the truth. I fist hear of Dr. Harold O.J.
