This should be interesting.
If they believe the Bible given from God through the words of the Apostle Paul, they will know how to vote.
Lotta men in that denomination not gonna be gettin any for awhile methinks.
True.
The issue is hermeneutics. Your hermeneutics informs your theology. If you fix your hermeneutics, this and many other issues, evaporates.
Southern Babtists’ middle name is “Duke”.
As in “Duke it out!”
Over everything.
The Pharisees got nothin’ on SBC Babtists.
Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump.
I said, ‘Don’t do it!’ He said, ‘Nobody loves me.’
I said, ‘God loves you. Do you believe in God?’ He said, ‘Yes.’
I said, ‘Are you a Christian or a Jew?’ He said, ‘A Christian.’
I said, ‘Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?’ He said, ‘Protestant.’
I said, ‘Me, too! What franchise?’ He said, ‘Baptist.’
I said, ‘Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?’ He said, ‘Northern Baptist.’
I said, ‘Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?’ He said, ‘Northern Conservative Baptist.’
I said, ‘Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?’ He said, ‘Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region.’
I said, ‘Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?’ He said, ‘Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912.’
I said, ‘Die, heretic!’ And I pushed him over.
That is very true.
I don't get your post #7 - are you saying that the SBC should not argue about this issue?
Not this again...
That’s for sure. It couldn’t be clearer. The fact that there’s even one Baptist who’s OK with this is shameful.
No chix.
“Your hermeneutics informs your theology.”
The men in the Pastoral Program when I was in seminary had Hermeneutics as a required class every year. Maybe that’s not a thing any more.
Dear good ol’ Southern Baptists,
Now’s the time to redeem yo’selves, wi’t all dah eyes of dah woild lookin’ at ya’s. Ye who are woildly known fo’ y’all’s “don’t” lists, now git to sttand up an’ really say fo’true, “dah bible tell me so!”, ‘bout iffin a woman cain’t preach or not!
Y’all say the bible is gawd’s woid, front to back, an’ iffin it says no women, why y’all sayin’ yes d’ey is?
frankly, the lack of leadership by men in all aspects of our lives has been so destructive, that having women step in makes sense....
why do most PTA's have mostly women leaders?...I'll tell you why...the men can't be bothered...
in a perfect world, men should be the leaders.....that is their responsibility....
women shouldn't have to be pastors and they shouldn't have to be soldiers either....they shouldn't have to "fill in" when no males are coming forward....
return of the jedi...return of the king....when will men return?
One problem is women refuse to fill their role these days leaving only the real men left to do everything. We need our helpmate but most women are now selfish and have abandoned their role.
This is not a them problem it is an us problem.
“For a long time, contrary to our Convention’s statement of faith, women have served as pastors in our Convention,” Law wrote in a letter to the SBC’s executive committee. “The problem is clear. The Bible is clear. Our Confession is clear. Now it is time for our Constitution to be clear, which will help secure our unity in the truth as a Convention.”The Bible is basically clear.
So in your world the Bible is relative and the Apostle Paul is not TOTALLY clear .
“Southern Babtists’ middle name is “Duke”.”
You mean when Jesus called the Pharisees snakes in the grass? The blind leading the blind?
You mean when the Apostle Paul crawled all over the Apostle Peter in Gal. 2:11 - 21
You don’t know what the hell you are talking about.
Last year in the first vote on this amendment it passed by 70%. The liberals are trying hard to defeat it.
