On their website, the NTAIBC says this (and more) about the Fundamental Fellowship:
-
-
Many churches subscribe to the 2000 B&FM
Yet some other churches have only confirmed the 1963 BF&M
So is our "2000" church in covenant with a "1963" church?
and then in addition - there are several doctrines/practices which separate SBC affiliated churches.
Differences between the 1963 and 2000 BF&M -
However, I would not remain in an assembly that considered one version "The Only" no matter the version.
My preference may not be my neighborin pew sitter preference, but the truth is not a preference and not for sale at the Bible store.
It is the work of the Holy Spirit to reveal truth, inspite and despite the version. -

I would have been against both the tactics and modernizing of the seminary, but would have run afoul of the fundamentalist leaders too, since I don't make pretribulationalism a test of fellowship, or think it should be. -

There are at least three ways to live as a Christian while in "captivity" in this world. You can be a separatist (Pharisees and IFBs), you can fully assimilate (Sadducees, and protestant Liberalism) or you can be "in the world, but not of it" by living within the community and being active in it.
IFBs and some other Christian groups tend to put their lamp under a bushel. Most Protestant Liberals don't even have a lamp, and Christians who live as Christ instructed are a "city on a hill". They are salt and light to the world. Salt, as a preservative, needs to be rubbed into meat. It needs to be in contact with meat in order to preserve it. Light from a lamp helps to guide one's steps and help them see clearly. Both are worthless unless they are near enough to be of use.
We must live as a city within a city, not withdraw and not assimilate. -

The first cut on lining up with a New Testament Church: explore the ones who have no wreaths on the doors of their meeting houses in December. Many folk are in the throes of pagan idolatry.(cults not included)
"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith The Lord, and touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you." saith The Lord, touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you," 2 Cor 6::17 is still in effect.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

Examine the life of Jesus. Did He live as a monk, hiding in a monastery, or did he dine with sinners? -

And hot chocolate (I suppose chocolate in general) which began as a drink Aztecs used in ceremonies to their pagan gods. This is probably one of the most frequent sins I see Christians embracing, especially during this time of the year. I even know of a church that offered hot chocolate as an outreach mission on "Black Friday". -
JonC said: ↑And celebrating birthdays, which even observes the pagan practice of offering gifts to the gods on their day. The traditional birthday cake originates in ancient idol worship (with flames lifting up prayers to be carried to the gods). I wonder how many Christians embrace the unclean thing by celebrating birthdays.

For some groups - closed communion is an essential doctrine
For others it is non-essential
For some groups - being involved with other non-fundamentalist* is an essential doctrine
For others it is non-essential
For Some groups -CCM is sinful - thus an essential doctrine
For others it is non-essential
* and to some fundamentalis - if you are not exactly like them- than you are not a fundamentalist! -
Not to complain and whine too much, but this thread is supposed to be historical discussion of the conservative Baptist conflict within the Northern Baptist Convention, not debates on completely unrelated matters! :eek:

Yes, it is. Further drifting posts will be deleted. The SBC gets the lion's share of discussion on this board. So, let us NBCers have the opportunity to discuss our history.
