CMI slammed over $in-gapore slammer

"RS (Canada) asked about our choice of title:

Question: is there a reason why you insinuate in your article that the person who disagreed with a talk given by Dr. David Catchpoole might be a ‘Wolf among the fold’? Just because someone openly disagrees with you doesn’t mean that they are a wolf …

We would like to offer an explanation on this particular point. This explanation is not intended as a defence to the earlier criticisms above, which are on separate issues.

Many Christians disagree with us on certain points, but that does not make them (or us) ‘wolves’. Jesus said: Watch out for false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will know them.’ (Matthew 7:15–16a)"
