The original statement defined the group's purpose as "helping churches promote the Gospel of Jesus Christ." That statement was revised at the group's annual meeting to read "help churches fulfill their God-given mission."

i supppose it would be useless to point out that without the Gospel of Jesus Christ there would be no Christianity. And what "God-given" mission will they promote? Will it be the cause of homosexuality like the Episcopalians are now experiencing?

Not to point out the obvious too obviously, but Jesus is God.

So unless the tiff over Jesus has shaken Baptists Christology - or Trinitarianism (as the author seems to see as "compromise") - well, then I don't see the tempest here.
