While I am a baptist with a little "b", I am not about to argue and break fellowship with a brother in Christ over a secondary issue that has no bearing on salvation whatsoever. I know some of the brethren from both sides of this issue make disagree but I think Bunyan had it right. God bless you all. | I take a Presbyterian version of Bunyan's view; in that, I think Baptists should be members in Presbyterian churches, and I believe that the WCF 26:2 necessitates this.
