When the IBFNA Split from the GARBC

It was 30 years ago when the beginning of the Split of the IBFNA from the GARBC Occured.

Were you even aware of the split?

Many of the churches that left - remained as part of the State affiliates of Regular Baptist churches.
Our Beginnings – Independent Baptist Fellowship of North America

Open for discussion

 

I agreed with Dr. Brown - Paid leaders of approved schools, missions, ect - should not be on the Council of 18. (It is the Council that approved schools, ect)
In essence - it was the Wolf guarding the Chicken house.

In addition the GARBC is an association of churches - NOT schools, missions ect.
Thus members of the Council of 18 should be pastors or members of local churches

 

Was not aware of that.
However, when the CBA was organizing the GARBC did talk to the CBA about merging - but GARBC said that CBA was not separate enough - for example some CBA churches were still members of the ABC.

 

Well, there is one big difference - in the GARBC the schools, missions, ect were independent organizations of the GARB and were to be annually approved (usually the approval was just a formality. , The SBC seminaries, mission boards ect are part of the SBC and under the SBC control.

 

Yes, I thought about it - but since the GARB and SBC are set up differently - I dont have an opinion ----------- YEt.

Jerome, Let me ask you this - At the convention - did you vote for Mohler?

 

okay so its Friday - (mess ups are allowed) do you plan on voting for him.......

Why not?
