SBC Disfellowships 2 Churches at February Executive Committee Meeting for Appointing Women as Pastors

[Salty]

Salty, keep saying that, and loudly especially when you're around Convention men like the one you have an appointment with.

Many of us in the SBC agree we are independent!
What makes you think we are not?

I don't know much about the SBC, but our IFB independently supports missionaries.

Back in the day, don't know about now, that was a difference.

So, what are you independent from?

Amen and Amen!

Good!

1) Your "IFB" what? or do you mean your local IFB church?
2) Our local SBC church does financially support the SBC cooperative missions program
3) We are NOT required to support the SBC cooperative missions
4) Our local SBC church does support an IFB missionary (he serves in Canada)

Back in the day, don't know about now, that was a difference.

Why would you not know if your local church currently supports missions

I guess my post was confusing, let me clarify.

All the IFB Churches I know or have known independently support missionaries.

Back in the day when I was a kid and up that was one of the noticeable in the SB and the IFB.

I don't much about the SB, or if that is still a difference in the SB and IFB Churches.

SBC is not as strict as the IFB though that is changing. My grandson is a youth pastor for an IFB church where men can have beards. even the pastor. I was IFB for 40+ years. Took an exploratory detour for about six years in an Assembly of God church and now a member of a Southern Baptist Texas Convention Church that follows the 2000 Baptist Faith and Message.

The IFB Church I've been in for the past 30 years is not as strict as the one I was raised up in, but still strict by most standards.

I do not agree with your terminology.

I'm not aware of a "the IFB". There are however thousands of IFB churches.

What is this "I was IFB"?

You may have been a member or pastor of an IFB church, but You were not IFB.
