The Current SBC Calvinism Debate

Observations, Clarifications, and Suggestions

Written by David Allen, SWBTS | Friday, July 6, 2012

SBC Prof Tom Nettles decries marginalization of Calvinists

Are Calvinists to be tolerated only as long as they do not express their views?

Written by Bob Allen, ABP | Wednesday, July 4, 2012

Nettles said Southern Baptists have come full circle in their renewed interest in Calvinist views, also known as Reformed Theology or the Doctrines of Grace.

"I believe that the issue of Calvinism is one that can be discussed within the family of Southern Baptists.

The Grownup Solution

Response to "Grown-ups prevail at the PCA General Assembly"

Written by Tim Phillips | Sunday, July 1, 2012

Pastor: Well, we have the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms, even though they predate theistic evolution. We tried to have a statement declaring the special creation of Adam passed at the national level of the denomination, but that failed. Now we’ll have to wait to see if anyone teaches theistic evolution and then wait for a judicial case to be decided for there to be anything definitive.
