Help Me Locate The Black Regiment

By Chuck Baldwin

Faithful readers of this column know of my burden for the pastors of America. Without informed, energized, and engaged pulpits, I see little hope for the maintenance of liberty and independence in this land.

When the colonies broke free from the shackles of the Crown, it was the moral and spiritual strength of colonial pulpits that helped lead the way. These revolutionary preachers became known as The Black Regiment, due to the long, black robes they were known to wear in the pulpit.

The Black Regiment taught their congregations the principles of freedom Sunday by Sunday. They expounded, explained, and extrapolated the Biblical principles of authority and jurisdiction carefully and meticulously. As a result, the men of colonial America were so well informed, both spiritually and politically, that when the time came to declare their independence, they had both the heart and mind to do it. Statesmen took up the pen, and soldiers took up arms in the greatest fight for freedom in world history. And leading both statesman and soldier was the Black Regiment.
...

Therefore, I use this column today to enlist the help of my readers. Will you help me locate the Black Regiment? If you know of any Bible-believing, Gospel-preaching pastor who would qualify as being a Black Regiment preacher, would you please let me know who they are?

...

Before sending me your list of names, let's set some ground rules. In order to qualify as a Black Regiment pastor, the following criteria must be met:

1. He is a Bible believer: he believes the Bible is God's holy and authoritative Word.

2. He is the head of his own home, having his wife and children in subjection to his authority. No henpecked men here.

3. He is the spiritual leader and shepherd of his local congregation, not a committee-controlled man.

4. He is a strong proponent of the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

5. He understands the necessity and integrity of sovereign national borders. And, to the degree that he understands it, has publicly spoken out against amnesty for illegal aliens and the burgeoning North American Union.

6. He understands freedom of speech and believes that a preacher is a spokesman for God (not the State) and has publicly decried so-called "hate crimes" legislation that would prohibit preachers from preaching Biblical truth regarding homosexuality.

7. He has publicly promoted the sanctity of life by preaching and protesting against abortion.

8. He has publicly repudiated the unconstitutional policies of President Bush in his promotion of the USA Patriot Act, warrantless wiretaps and eavesdropping, and the deceptive manner in which he led America into an undeclared, unprovoked, and preemptive war against Iraq.

9. He has publicly resisted "Seeker-Friendly," and "Purpose-Driven," and "Emerging Church" church growth movements.

10. He believes the church has a responsibility to be the salt and light of the world. That is, that we are to win souls to Christ, and resist Satan in whatever form (spiritual, social, political, cultural, etc.) he reveals himself.

ONE OF THE BEST posts I have ever seen, incorporating the greatest challenge to pastors everywhere, and to his flock! I weep because I know no one who meets the criteria. :tear:

You can find a whole slew of them in the Unregistered Baptist Churches in America. They are not looked upon here on this board with any respect. They are the outcast and the scarlet blemish on Politically Correct Baptists.

Thank you for that explanation Bartimaeus. I was wondering why sometimes I feel like a stranger in a strange land on this board, I love those UBF pastors.

There are alot more men who are not a part of the UBF that are unregistered. I am not part of it and I consider myself unregistered. No problem with the UBF, I guess I'm just a little more independant than that. I have lots of friends inside the fellowship and outside. Thank the Lord.

What does unregistered mean? Unordained?

The unregistered Baptists believe that to be true to the Scriptures and the Baptist Distinctive of "The entire separation of Church and State" (I believe Orchard in his book on Baptist history stated it this way) is to operate a church/ministry without any affiliations, alliances or contract/covenants with the government. It is to operate with absolutely no affinities at all between the church/ministry and the government.

The UBF is an acronym for the Uregistered Baptist Fellowship which is a fellowship of Baptist pastors who believe and practice the position stated above.
