Seminary presidents reaffirm BFM, declare CRT incompatible

[Revmitchell]

WAKE FOREST, N.C. (BP) – In recognition of the 20th anniversary of the adoption of the Baptist Faith and Message 2000, the Council of Seminary Presidents of the Southern Baptist Convention has reaffirmed “with eagerness” the BFM’s status “as the doctrinal statement that unites and defines Southern Baptist cooperation and establishes the confessional unity of our Convention.”

In a statement adopted in the council’s annual session, the seminary presidents assert that as “confessional institutions,” the SBC’s six seminaries stand “together in this classic statement of biblical truth.” Additionally, the statement declares that while condemning “racism in any form,” the seminaries agree that “affirmation of Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality and any version of
Baptist Faith & Message.”

Danny Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and current chairman of the Council of Seminary Presidents, said those specific issues were addressed in light of concerns raised by Southern Baptists, including resolutions on the topic adopted by several state conventions at their annual meetings this fall.

“We felt that because our brothers and sisters in various state conventions have concern about this issue, they would also want to know what their seminaries actually think, and what we are teaching and not teaching,” Akin said.

So when are they going to purge the critical race professors?

Good question. First they have to admit they are there.

This part seems to have lost some integrity in copying and pasting above:

Correct, yet people have lied and stated that the 6 defend it

There is only 1 that even remotely could be seen as slightly supporting it.

That institution is seen as trying to accommodate, but it just needs to cut bait and do the right thing ny God
