It’s becoming apparent to me that it’s soon going to be unwise to claim membership in any of those old “denominations” that we grew up in back then.
I agree with you. After a lifetime in the Southern Baptist Church, for the sake of my children I moved my family to a small independent reformed Baptist church. We actively work with similar congregations around the country to take the gospel around the globe, but we have no formal affiliation with any group. By the way, I no longer claim to be a Republican either.
