In this article, R. Albert Mohler, Jr. remembers, “the conservative revision of the Southern Baptist Convention’s confession of faith, the ‘Baptist Faith and Message.'”

On Ep. 22 of The CR:V Podcast Allan Hampton joins us to talk about the blessing of being on the receiving end of church discipline. We trust you will find the conversation both informative and edifying.
In this article from Ronnie Floyd’s Advancing the Vision series, Floyd writes, “The future is not in having cultural conversations apart from the Bible. This will always lead to division. Southern Baptist pastors, leaders, and churches need to be having biblical conversations about cultural matters.”
For all our talk of war we often miss the battlefield. The apostle Paul, in the sixth chapter of his epistle to the Ephesians, speaks of putting on the whole armor of God that the soldier of God might stand against the devil.
10Â Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11Â Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12Â For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13Â Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
We note here that our ultimate enemies are not human beings, but spiritual forces. The way we fight spiritual forces differs from how we face physical, fleshly beings.
Why am I a Southern Baptist? I was born this way. I’m also a Baptist by conviction. And I’m a Southern Baptist because I’m a sucker for the Bible and missions.
The Bible and missions.
The Bible and missions.
The Bible and missions.
When I think about the Southern Baptist Convention, everything always comes back to that.
Detractors from the overall program of ensuring that the Southern Baptist Convention does not forsake the principles regained during the Conservative Resurgence often note the absurdity of believing that Southern Baptists believe in anything less than the authority and infallibility of the Bible. In doing so, they miss the current point of contention. The concern is not, and has never been for the past twenty years or so, whether or not Southern Baptists are giving up on their stated belief in the inerrancy of the Bible. Nor is the worry over whether or not we have left behind the fundamentals of the faith, like the virgin birth and penal substitutionary atonement of Christ. Rather, the problem is something like this: we say we believe them while failing to apply them to all areas of life.
