Congratulations. 500 years after the "reformation," a sizeable chunk of the SBC is more Pelagian, more "works righteousness," than the Pope.

"We deny that Adam's sin resulted in the incapacitation of any person's free will". LOL ... have fun re-inventing the wheel, theologically speaking.

Compare this:

"We deny that Adam's sin resulted in the incapacitation of any person's free will".

With:

"When God touches man's heart through the illumination of the Holy Spirit, man himself is not inactive while receiving that inspiration, since he could reject it; and yet, without God's grace, he cannot by his own free will move himself toward justice in God's sight." (CCC 1993)

And:

"Ignorance of the fact that man has a wounded nature inclined to evil gives rise to serious errors in the areas of education, politics, social action and morals." (CCC 407)
