You all explained so much to me in the Luther Rice thread about academic writing rules. I do not agree with so many of them, but I am glad to know what the rules are and the reasoning behind them.
Luther Rice College: Matthew Henry is outdated, but Calvin is not??

I have read this article a few times now. I take this advice quite seriously.

I posted a thread about it, awhile back.
The Importance of Being Earnest: Approaching Theological Study

Too much academic study absolutely hurts my spiritual faith if I do not balance it with devotional study within my own faith.
Due to far too many of those in higher academia have taken on doctrines and views that would not be acceptable to those of us holding to 'good old religion" views!

Looking at the question of Baptist theology. As either folk theology or borrowed Theology. It is to be the true Biblical Theology.
1 John 2:27, ". . . But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. . . ."
And the New testament being the actual Apostolic authority God gave His elect and His churches.
