    It's not about Campbellite theology, which I agree is easily shown to be false using the bible. The point of a creed, confession, or articles of faith isn't to correct or expose false theology, it is to concisely state what one believes the bible teaches regarding several issues. It is not intended to be exhaustive nor is it intended to show everything believed and practiced by that body of believers.

    Calvinists can be saved....in fact my Brother, my minister, my wife & I as well as most of my family are Calvinists though you suggest we are cultists.

    You have also given me a great story to tell the Minister & the congregation this evening @ the Wednesday prayer meeting / bible study. :laugh:

    "We believe . . . ." is to often no better than Judaism. James dealt with that issue.

    In addition to the GARBC site mentioned earlier, one can also get a feel for the Reformed movement among Southern Baptists at

    http://www.founders.org

    Founders is not a denomination or dissident group within the SBC. It's avowed goal is to return Southern Baptists to their Reformed roots--the Calvinism of the denomination's founders. The website has a list of "Founders-friendly" churches.

    What remark of mine in this thread would you characterize as smark alec?

    This is a debate forum SN. People have the perfect freedom to post. It's not a one-to-one discussion. Besides you have on numerous occasions chosen to make remarks on threads having nothing to do with the OP. You have no such room to denounce even a peon like myself.


    Where was I sarcastic in this thread? Show me. I can easily point out your sarcastic remarks. What I would like to receive back is honesty.

    You apparently don't know the meaning of the word malingered.


    So you have chosen to go against the Word of God in passages such as Phil. 2:3,4 and Proverbs 16:18.

    You have what worldlings would call healthy self-esteem. But biblical Christians would call it pridefulness.

    Earth W & F is a "newbie" and obviously has not been around historic Baptists too much. I don't think he is a troll, just here to roil the waters.

    Give him time or (if just too irritating) a wide berth and ignore him. He will catch on to truth as the Spirit opens his eyes. He has lots of misunderstanding and misconceptions and obviously young and in need of instruction.

    Be kind.
