Today is a good day to check out @BaptistRenewal
The NT warnings are clear - there are dangers in both directions related to the charges to “pass on sound doctrine” & “guard the good deposit.”
On the one hand, we can widen the tent too much, to the extent that we become or tolerate false teachers who tickle itching ears.
On the one hand, we can widen the tent too much, to the extent that we become or tolerate false teachers who tickle itching ears.
On the other hand, we can, in the interest of doctrinal fidelity, shrink the boundaries so much that we become divisive, obsessed with silly myths, endless genealogies, & pointless controversies.
The way of Christ is the narrow way between these two divergent paths. We need to pursue theological fidelity that leads us further into the wisdom & knowledge of God, which is Christ, while also refusing to divide from those who belong, alongside us, to Christ.
This narrow way is the one we hope to walk at CBR. I certainly don’t pretend that we have done, currently do, or will do so perfectly, but that’s where we want to be. So, again, in a time where the culture pulls us at once toward both itching ears & divisiveness, check it out.
