    Things change. CP giving can now be designated to the missionary/program of the church's choice. Problem solved.

    We're way off topic here. Let's get back to the OP.

    DocCas said:
    In my opinion, the CP is not only unbiblical, but anti-biblical. The local churches have virtually nothing to say about what missionaries are supported, how much they are supported, or have any input to their doctrine, nor any supervision at all over those missionaries


    So is DocCas saying that ALL mission boards are anti-biblical?

    Also, a SBC church is NOT required to support the Cooperative pgm.
    Also many SBC churches support non-SBC Independent missionaries.

    Getting back to your opening post, Frank, which I may have deflected away from with my statement: why don't you tell us what you mean by independent and just what kind of churches are you interested in how they view divorce and ordination?

    I have think my definition to independent is this Baptist that call themselves that cause their independent to associations and conventions but I really wanted to know what the fundmential Baptist believed on the divorced preacher or the man that got divorced and married again but I am a United Baptist Minister and some of them have associations and some dont

    Then you also need to define Fundamental Baptist.
    I am SBC - and a Fundamentalist.

    With that said, A good number of IFB would say one divorce - (by either the man or his current wife) and he cannot be a pastor. Yet, there are IFB that will permit a divorced man to be a pastor. As I said before - its up to the individual local church.

    Frank, with the wide diversity of belief and practice on the matter -- even among "Independent Fundamental Baptist" -- the best thing is probably just to inquire of specific churches that you know
