King was apparently a Baptist who rejected Baptist doctrine solely because he would get more street cred by being a Baptist minister than being a Universalist minister.

That's certainly the message I get.

A couple weeks ago we had someone on this forum (if I remembered whom I'd ping him) who insisted that King was an orthodox "born-again" Baptist and that theological liberalism hadn't yet hit the institutions where he studied in the Fifties (which is nonsense, since liberalism had been around for a long time already).

Found him for you.

Louis, this was an eye-opening article for me. If you read it closely, you may see firsthand was ZC was talking about re: King’s liberal theology.

Best to you both.
