Until the Nicene Creed becomes a required theological confession in Southern Baptist schools, we will continue to see: 1) theologians tampering with the Trinity to meet their social agendas; 2) the Jehovahs Witnesses and Mormons viewing Southern Baptist churches as ripe fields;
To all those who have a newfound appreciation for Baptist identity, welcome to the party! Wait until you find out what our Baptist tradition has confessed about the creeds that settle orthodox Trinity and Christology.
Orthodox theologians under the gun. The oppression of orthodoxy happens in many contexts: “Detroit archbishop fires 3 Sacred Heart Seminary theologians who criticized Pope Francis” ncronline.org/news/detroit-a…
This is so wrong
My thoughts on the recent news of a well-known theologian leaving the SBC: tinyurl.com/2vzws72t
The political use of theology (as opposed to living out theology’s implications) and the cynical use of the reputation of other people (as opposed to speaking truth in love) are both forms of idolatry. The first uses God’s name for vain purposes. The second abuses his image.
“If Jesus is God, what are you going to do with him? What are you going to do with Him?” “Accept Him, friend, as your Saviour and the Redeemer of your lost soul! Accept him now and confess him in this host of His friends.” George W. Truett Theologian of the Southwest
Appealing to an oblique “Whereas” (not even a “Resolve”) in a non-binding Resolution, which has become difficult to amend in a shortened annual meeting, while opposing or stonewalling efforts to add creedal teeth to the Baptist Faith & Message, is at best a misunderstanding.
Wise words from a theological giant in the Southern Baptist Convention
Timothy George considered leaving the Baptist tradition until he realized every tradition has struggles. Staying let him learn from others without losing the gift of his Baptist identity and heritage.
Masculinists and Feminists boast in their strengths. But the Apostle Paul boasted in his weakness. Don’t be a Masculinist or a Feminist. Be a Christian. Boast in the true and eternal strength of the one true God, not in the fallible and failing strength of mere human beings.
“Baptist Christians have historically believed, if put on equal footing, Christianity will win because it is true,” Webb continued. baptiststandard.com/news/baptists/…

On Wolves The Hireling in the ranks of Christian ministers empowers, enables, and makes excuses for Wolves, even as they attack the sheep. The true Pastor in Christian ministry exalts only the Lordship of Jesus, exposes these worthless Hirelings, and eradicates the Wolves.
Syria: Pastor Khaled Mazhar – along with 12 members of his family – were murdered by HTS Islamists inside their home in Sweida (Suwayda). The Druze-background pastor led the Good Shepherd Evangelical Church in that city. Those killed include children and the elderly. A…
Beware of those who subordinate the sacred teachings of Holy Scripture to their personal whims and political goals. That way surrenders the heart to the deception of the demonic from the very first step. And its last step deserves the wrath of God.
