You mean like Jesus and the apostles did repeatedly throughout the NT? Im a Christian, so your charge is a non issue.
Because I recognize the truth of some of Calvins work does not mean I am a Calvinist
My only point was that you seem to imply that becoming Baptist was somehow automatically linked to being non Reformed or non covenantal. I do not see that necessary linkage.
Yes, they routinely threw out the entire OT background of God's work in human history through the nation of Israel and discarded the literal interpretation of the OT. Highlight and expansion is one thing ... replacement theology is another.

The linkage may not be necessary, I conceed the point. But there is no Baptist church I have ever been in that even had a hint of Covenant theological perspective.
Dispensational and non-dispensational theology will always dialogue ... as our evangelism approach and our desire to live a pure life in anticipation of the imminent return of Christ are common positions. But there is unlikely to be common ground in escatological discussions because we approach the formation of systematic theology at different starting points.
