Thanks, Sojourner.

Nice reply on my blog, and I appreciate it! Is it fair to say that the Baptist Faith and Message is "too non-specific" and open to all sorts of interpretation?

One reason I ask is that the big megachurch nearest my house is an SBC church that has a lot of money and pageants and concerts and such, but my former pastor grew upin that church and says he never heard the gospel in all the years he attended.

There are Dispensational SBC churches, Charismatic SBC churches, Reformed SBC churches - they seem to run the gamut yet they all claim the Baptist Faith and Message. Not to pick on the SBC, I'm just as quick to point out that even the apostate PCUSA claims the Westminster Confession of Faith! My question, I guess, is restricted to those Baptist churches that claim the London Baptist Confession as well as the Baptist Message.
