It shows me that MLK rejected the Baptist theology being fed to him. He even made it through Bible college with serious doubts, rationalizing Christ's Divinity, etc. He wasn't 'double-minded' -- he was quite honest how he felt about things.
He was a wayward Christian who eventually found meaning in Swedenborg's writings. He applied them in a way that few have in history. Many of his late papers are yet to be published... it should be interesting to see how his truths of faith were influenced and developed from his youth.
So you admit he was “a wayward Christian”, lol. Let’s see, he didn’t believe that all of the bible was God’s word, he believed Christ was “just a man”, he did not believe in the Resurrection or the virgin birth of Christ, he committed adultery and bragged that he was “doing it for God”, although he used terms unbecoming a Baptist preacher, and then he turned to a man instead of the bible for guidance. Okie dokie
