BAPTIST MEGACHURCH PREPARES FOR FEMALE SENIOR PASTOR
By Apprising Administrator on May 30, 2007 in Current Issues, Southern Baptist Convention
It’s simply a matter of time when an organization lacks real men in leadership. And here’s more drift toward apostasy for the SBC (Soiled By Compromise) as it continues licking the feet of its idol of autonomy. Christian Post reports:
A Baptist megachurch in Decatur, Ga., is preparing to take the rare step of calling a female pastor to lead its congregation. First Baptist Church Decatur and its 2,696 members have been without a pastor for about a year.
The search committee sought out to find a pastor young enough and mature enough to appeal to both young and old congregants, a dynamic speaker, and passionate and warm leader with a vision for the future of the church. On Sunday, the committee presented the Rev. Julie Pennington-Russell to the church… First Baptist is affiliated with Cooperative Baptist Fellowship – a moderate splinter group of the Southern Baptist Convention – but still maintains ties with the SBC.
Isn’t there one SBC leader with any spiritual guts to speak up? Dr. Al Mohler; didn’t you write on the back of your friend Dr. John MacArthur’s The Truth War, "he is armed with the courage to confront this age with a bold defense of truth." Well, how about you?
IS THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION ITSELF FILLING UP WITH “DEAD CHURCHES”?
