He may be a prominent Baptist, but a leader? The overwhelming concept of most Baptist congregations is their independence and lack of a supreme leader other than Jesus.
The SBC has been changing. Guys like Moore (another one is Albert Mohler, president of Southern Seminary) have a lot of influence. Indirect, but influence none theless.
Moore is very pro life, but he’s also for immigration, and he’s said some things that might be interpreted as being environmentalist.
You are talking about SBC, most Baptist do not belong to the SBC. The majority of Baptist are independent and stand alone in their convictions.
He is a “leader” within the SBC, and Moore is unfit to be in any position of leadership. He is weak and tries to be Mohler’s Minime. “Moderate” elements have taken over the SBC, it is tacking left on sodomites, feminism, environmentalism, “diversity”, amnesty, and just about every other social issue. This is why Land was replaced by Moore (although Land was not a lot better). Oh, yea, but those frauds are “inerrantists”.
No one should give a dime to the SBC. Oh, yes, and the cooperative program is ineffective.
I’ve seen no sign the SBC “leaders” have any significant influence. Most congregations I’ve been in yawn and ignore...
