What the resurgence was and is all about

from bigdaddyweave:
Dwight McKissic, Southern Baptist pastor of Cornerstone Baptist in Fort Worth on NBC:

"That was like heaven on Earth to me," said Dwight McKissic, pastor of predominantly black Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington. "I enjoyed the high church music of the Mercer [University] choir as much as I did the black Baptist choir."

A conference called for and attended by two past Presidents. If McKissic thinks THAT is heaven on earth, then he is no baptist.

We all know that the baptist version of heaven on earth is the Golden Corral.

I do not put any value in anything said by anyone who has so little view of scripture such as these folks.

"These folks." You're extrapolating from something a writer said to the Biblical knowledge of the whole movement? Poor logic.

Are you suggesting that the whole movement does not support these statements?

I would also say that "if" there are those who disagree with such statements in this movement then it goes without saying that I am not talking about them. The words "these folks" obviously are intended for those who agree with those statements. Why does that need explaining?

Bill Clinton, to his credit did not bring a political speech at the NBC, if you would like to hear and see what he said, go to big daddy wave's blog - link below, and check it out. It is about the 2nd or 3rd blog entry down.

I am not a Bill or Hillary Clinton supporter in any way shape or from, but I found his speech very good. No one can deny that the man is a great communicator, and did a good job in his speech.

I disagree that the NBC is a terrible concept. One thing that it did was to bring both Black and White Baptists together. Unfortunately the liberal wing probably outnumbered the conservative wing fairly dramatically, however, whatever lip service the SBC has given to racial reconciliation, we as SBCers need to do a much better job. It may take groups such as the NBC to begin to pull this off. As Dwight McKissic, an African American pastor of a large SBTC church in Arlington, Texas has pointed out, there are no African American's in leadership positions at the executive board of the SBC.

Bill Clinton has no business giving any speech at any conference of this nature.

If you could please inform me of what kind of things I'm allowed to do, that would be helpful. I have a lot of things lined up in the next few months, but I don't want to overstep my boundaries of what kinds of things I have any business doing.

Since you're the authority on this, I just thought I'd ask you.

Thanks for any permissions given.
