My history study has shown some baptist in the past held to Presbyterial polity and not independency, some from the Primative Baptist groups and others. So I also guess the 1689 General Assembly is not a counsel?
I do not agree that polity makes or breaks a Baptist... Baptism Does...
I will stick to the term Presbyterial Reformed Baptist....
Also, I am not saying baptist church are not churches....
Have a Good Sabbath

Oh...and I am offended at your characterization of Baptist churches as sinful. If Baptist churches are sinning, then they cannot be a real church. If they are not a real church then brother Rich Lenio is sinning by attending a Baptist church in Okinawa. Please do all Baptists a favor and just call yourself a Presbyterian. |
