We've Been Talking Long Enough
What are the results of our (ABCUSA’s) more than 20 year long discussion of this behavior the Bible calls sin? Here are some:
ABE (American Baptist Evangelicals) declare no possibility of renewal in ABCUSA and goes out of existence to form a new para church organization.
ABCPSW declares no possibility of biblical renewal in ABCUSA and votes to withdraw from the denomination.
ABC of Michigan is said to possibly be on the verge of voting regarding withdrawal if there is no change in the Valley Forge position.
ABC of the West changes its name so as not to be too closely identified with the denomination.
ABCWV a national magazine reports that another vote on withdrawal is possible.
ABC of Indiana-Kentucky makes efforts in the ABCUSA regarding enforcing the Resolution on Homosexuality.
GREEN LAKE gears up for post denominational ministry.
INDIVIDUAL CHURCHES (number unknown) frustrated by Valley Forge’s unwillingness to promote biblical obedience among the churches consider leaving the denomination or remaining inactive. 81 churches (outside of the PSW) have recently withdrawn from the denomination, with 47 of those being linked to the current turmoil over the Bible’s teaching. It is my opinion that among those who gave no reason for withdrawing a majority withdrew because of the unbiblical stance of ABCUSA.
Now, are all these people simply so unlearned that they can’t read the words of the Bible and understand what they mean?
Are all these long time American Baptists just a bunch of mean spirited nasties?
Are they “mind numbed robots” who follow anything Pat Roberston says on t.v.? Or are they good people, denominationally concerned, who have realized that the discussion has revealed to them that there is very little hope our leaders across the denominational spectrum will ever go back to the Bible as a true authority for ABCUSA?
