Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

I would like to know the percentage of 5 or 4 point Calvinists.

 

I am a 1995 graduate of Southern Seminary, MDiv-Pastor Track. I am very disappointed and shocked at how few Scripture courses are now offered at Southern. I took 15 hours of Scripture electives, a Greek course translating interpreting the book of Philippians, a course on The Apostle Paul & His Writings (NT books); also my Systematic Theology I course with Dr. Wayne Ward was essentially a Scripture course. My total Scripture and related courses were 24 hours. But in the current version of MDiv-Pastor Track only 6 hours of free electives are accepted. And the offerings for Bible courses are much smaller now than in 1995.
Both currently 2022 and in 1995, 12 hours of Bible survey courses were required for the MDiv-Pastor Track degree. So my total Scripture, required + electives, was 36 hours.

 

The SBC seminaries currently seem to think that NT introduction and OT introduction is all you need to know about Bible books themselves. Not the way it used to be when you used to have lots of free electives!
