The Prajapati Affair 003
R. Krishnankutty was a bit upset about the proposed series of articles, and he informed this displeasure to me. So I spent a whole day discussing various aspects of the issues involved, and he clearly said that Koshy Abraham’s teaching is a heresy. He also said that any support to the teachings of Koshy is sinful and a heretical activity. He promised me his full support for my work against this heresy, but made an about-turn that surprised everyone who knew about our full-day meeting.
R Krishnankutty had a private magazine of his own. In this magazine he wrote an endorsement to my series, and said that once I was finished with my series against Koshy Abraham’s heresy, he would also write one or more articles to expose the heresies of Koshy.
The Prajapati Affair 002
As soon as we conducted a survey of Christian bookshops in Kerala, both Arun K. Paul as well as I realized that there has been a serious defection among the assemblies about the doctrines of inerrancy, infallibility, and inspiration. So much so that even many prominent Brethren leaders were proclaiming from the pulpit that Holy Spirit inspired revelation can be found in religious books outside the Bible. Two of them wrote in their books that Holy Spirit inspired revelation can be found in books of all religions.
The Prajapati Affair 001
After I moved to Kerala in 1994, what can be called the “Prajapati Affair” was my second major doctrinal campaign, something that definitely resulted in a separation between Scripturalists and Universalists amogng the Brethren. The Scripturalists affirmed that only the 66 books of the Bible are inspired by the Holy Spirit, while the Universalists claimed that the scriptures of all religions were Holy-Spirit-inspired.
