Shorter: The Church is in retreat.
Nothing, absolutely nothing has or is changing about SBC's stance on sexual sins, all are wrong, each and every one is a serious problem both in and out of the church but as believers, if one is consistently committing sexual sins, then one is out of fellowship with Jesus Christ and THAT is the problem, not the specific sin one is committing.
We still stand on the view that as followers of Christ, we hate the sin but love sinners, as we all are and continue to be as sons and daughters of the first sinner, Adam. When we are in fellowship with Jesus, we need to continue to search our hearts for sin in our lives to pray and continue to ask for forgiveness from them. It is impossible for humans this side of Heaven, to live without sinning but we need to look to our walk with Jesus as our example of a sinless life and model our lives on Him.
Our only approach to the unsaved is and should be the message of Jesus Christ died for you (and me) and without Him, eternity will be spent far from God (Hell). Repent and come join with Jesus today and live eternally with Him!
No serious believer and follower of Christ, is ready to respond to demands from the homosexual activists by now claiming that the Bible is now wrong!
Our stance on all sin is that they are wrong, need to be examined in one's own life, repented of and asked for forgiveness from to be in a relationship with Jesus Christ.
As to NPR, liars still lie, what's new about that.
Not, it isn’t. The SB are still the most conservative church in the nation. However, we don’t bar the door to anyone. Come as you are, but don’t keep your sinful lifestyle.
You can’t pick the parts of the Bible you like and ignore what you don’t like or want to make it inclusive of everyone.
If they persist in said retreat, they will end up like the ELCA.
