Joel's Reflection after the ABC storm

Three Lines in the Sand, Part 2

In the first part of this presentation, I suggested incorrectly that the issue that resulted in several churches pulling out of the IFBAM was Calvinism. The issue actually was something different. My apology to Dave Doran of Inter-City Baptist Church, the IFBAM, and anyone else that was hurt by that incorrect analysis. We’ll try to do better with “the facts.” Straight Ahead…..Joel

An Analysis of Type A, B, and C Fundamentalism

(My apology that this article has been slow in coming. I had hoped to publish this in late summer. We have been so busy here at Southeast Valley Baptist Church that I simply have not been able to take the time to finish this until now. Blessings on you as you read and think through the issues found here. Looking forward to future interaction here regardless of what “type” you are. Straight Ahead! Joel)

It is an important argument, and Mohler expresses it thoughtfully.
