UPDATE: SBC Messengers Sever Ties With Texas Church Over Gay Members
Published June 25th, 2009 by Ken Silva in General News, Homosexuality



Those leaders within the SBC who are already in bed with the “queer inclusive” Emerging Church won’t like this story from Associated Baptist Press:




It took messengers to the Southern Baptist Convention annual meeting June 23 only 30 seconds to sever a 125-year relationship

with a prominent Texas congregation because of the church’s perceived toleration of gay members.





Voting in the opening session of their annual meeting in Louisville, the messengers chose overwhelmingly to dismiss

Broadway Baptist Church in Fort Worth.



They did so on a recommendation the convention’s Executive Committee approved, without dissent, the day before.



The recommendation did not specifically mention homosexuality.


But that issue has been the backdrop of controversy at the church since late 2007, when a dispute arose regarding whether to include pictures of same-sex couples alongside other families in the church’s membership directory…

Difficult days are ahead though in the SBC, for those who bow before their Idol of Autonomy,

as mainstream evangelicalism further embraces Emergent rebels and drifts deeper into its rejection of Sola Scriptura.
