Happy Thanksgiving Everyone~!
Good Morning, tutstar. There are now at least three Baptists posting. Have a joyful and relaxing Thanksgiving.
Why not try this SBC--let God choose what He does with whom He chooses and how He chooses, as Sovereign of the Universe. This great denomination (of which I am part) should not get caught up in making major policy based on theological gray areas. They do not have sufficient Biblical grounds to do so.
Happy Thanksgiving to all............;-)
Happy Thanksgiving to you, and thanks for the work that you do on this thread.

Thanksgiving Blessings to You and Yours.
My $0.02: I am 63, a sinner saved solely by the grace of God through Jesus and...a trained linguist. It is distressing to see this SBC position.
There is much lunacy in the charismatic and non-charismatic branches of Our Lord's church. He will remedy that in his time. Meanwhile, we dare not excerpt the Word in a way that has man's traditions make void the Word itself. To wit: 1 Cor 14:39.
I continue to teach in the trenches of the Methodist Church to hopefully show the love of Christ in an environment which at times could only be charitably described as apostate. I pray there are brave souls doing the same in the SBC. Woe to those leaders who disbar them.
And yes, I do speak in tongues through the mercies of Jesus.
