Adam Greenway nominated to lead Southwestern Seminary

I actually met Brother Greenway a few months ago. He preached at a church I occasionally attend. He did an excellent job and this nomination is well deserved, imo.

 

He told me they vote next week. Please pray for him.

 

I knew they would bring a cal in and it is why they wanted to get rid of Patterson.

 

Adam Greenaway is a solid choice, imo. Who else was being considered?

 

I'm sure you do, by the way I said this is what would happen.

 

Were there any other candidates they interviewed? As I said, he’s a solid choice. SBC made a bad hire in Greear. From what I heard about him, he’s a Calvinist with some bad doctrine.

 

Why bother? God has either already caused or foreknown the outcome.

 

Because everything God does He does via means. Why bother? Because God is the One who puts ppl in places.

 

Yes God has ppl to put in particular places, but ppl here on earth don't know who it is. That is why both parties involved need to pray for guidance. It may turn out that Brother Adam does not get the nod, and if so, someone else will. But just because God has someone picked out for that position, that does not negate the need of prayer from both parties.

 

The ousting of Patterson was very suspicious and I said at that time they will likely pick a cal to replace him. I knew that was the agenda and low and behold......

He is probably a fine man. SW needs to stay traditional.

 

Well, if they ousted him wrongfully, then that is bad. I read the PP had tried to keep a girl from going forth with an sexual assault claim, or something like that. But I could very well be mistaken.

 

That was certainly an accusation but it was false. Here is a good description of the events surrounding Patterson:

The untold truth: Facts surrounding Paige Patterson and his removal from SWBTS By Sharayah Colter

 

Thanks for that. If SWBTS railroaded him to get a Calvinist in there in his place, that was flat out wrong. I have heard both sides of this and don’t know what to make of it. I will just pray for the one(s) wrong to repent and publically acknowledge their sin in this.

 

Adam Greenway is officially SWBTS’ newest president.
