The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship

[Ivan]

Here is an article about the CBF (The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship), a group of former SBC churches that left the SBC over the Conservative Resurgence. This is what we would be dealing with in the SBC if the changes hadn't taken place. I am thankful for God's mercy.

"And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied."

1 Cor. 15:17-19

Yikes! Dr. John Killinger would make a very popular American Baptist.

As I recall he is a Presbyterian, who is now serving in a Methodist church, speaking at a gathering of liberal Baptists.



How cozy is that?

As I do a little research I find that my understanding is incorrect. Killinger is actual Congregational, graduated for Baylor University and pastored Baptist Churches.

Marble Collegiate Church is (or was?) a Dutch Reformed Church.

Well, the CBF is still a bunch of liberal Baptists!

That is the church where Norman Vincent Peale preached.

Yes, indeed. One of those positive thinkers.
