Tom, It seems this was bound to happen, sooner or later. Since the denominations "Statement of Faith" is basically Calvinistic, then you are correct that the onus rests upon the dissenters. To be sure, this situation isn't unique!  Usually what happens is either the pastor is ousted or most of the fervently disgruntled ones leave and find a typical evangelical church. But personal "ties" to buildings, friends, and of course, personal pride all contribute to the flaming of the current smoldering fire. May your pastor be courageous, unwaivering in the truth and wise as a serpent but gentle as a dove in this matter. It is the LORD he must please and give an account and not any man. 
simul iustus et peccator
