There is no scriptural justification for the 'convention'.

Each church is linked to the convention and dependent on it for support.

Whoops, another error. The churches don’t depend on the convention for support. They support the convention.

I don’t know what kind of Baptists you are thinking about, but it’s not the Southern Baptists

As another poster has pointed out...and I wanted to emphasize...this is ANOTHER falsehood. As I was going through your posts I knew there was another one I wanted to point out and this was it.

This is very much incorrect. The ONLY churches that MIGHT depend on the SBC for support are NEW church plants...and this is through a cooperation of other churches and is very biblical and only lasts for a period of 3 years MAX. However...NO established local church depends on the SBC for support.

OK...you made the claim...support it with evidence...or apologize (yet ANOTHER false claim).
