He acknowledges that heresy has done much more than confuse and divide the church. It has also helped the church to classify orthodoxy. Just as heresy served this purpose historically, so it serves this purpose pedagogically in \u003ci\u003eHeresies.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume presents a clarion call to evangelicals to preserve tenaciously \"the faith once delivered to the saints.\" Frank E.
