Summary

This sermon starts as a historical discussion about dealing with heretics and resolving doctrinal differences of opinion. He talks a lot about "heresy hunters". Davis argues against creeds and argues for engaging with different opinions productively. He argues that this is part of the essence of the Protestant Reformation. A handwritten notation indicates that he also read this sermon on September 25, 1949 in Petersham.
