  • Baptist Faith and Message 2000 Preamble
    The Baptist Faith & Message 2000 Preamble Report of the Baptist Faith and Message Study Committee to the Southern Baptist Convention Adopted, June 14th, 2000 The 1999 session of the Southern Baptist Convention, meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, adopted the following motion addressed to the President of the Convention: "I move that in your capacity as Southern Baptist Convention chairman, you appoint a blue ribbon committee to review the Baptist Faith and Message statement with the responsibility to report and bring any recommendations to this meeting next June in Orlando." President Paige Patterson appointed the committee as follows: Max Barnett (OK), Steve Gaines (AL), Susie Hawkins (TX), Rudy A. Hernandez (TX), Charles S. Kelley, Jr. (LA), Heather King (IN), Richard D. Land (TN), Fred Luter (LA), R. Albert Mohler, Jr. (KY), T. C. Pinckney (VA), Nelson Price (GA), Adrian Rogers (TN), Roger Spradlin (CA), Simon Tsoi (AZ), Jerry Vines (FL). Adrian Rogers (TN) was appointed chairman. Your committee thus constituted begs leave to present its report as follows: Baptists are a people of deep beliefs and cherished doctrines. Throughout our history we have been a confessional people, adopting statements of faith as a witness to our beliefs and a pledge of our faithfulness to the doctrines revealed in Holy Scripture. Our confessions of faith are rooted in historical precedent, as the church in every age has been called upon to define and defend its beliefs. Each generation of Christians bears the responsibility of guarding the treasury of truth that has been entrusted to us [2 Timothy 1:14]. Facing a new century, Southern Baptists must meet the demands and duties of the present hour.

  • A Faithful Soldier Charles Jerry Vines by Nancy Lee Smith
    A Faithful Soldier Charles Jerry Vines by Nancy Lee Smith “A preacher must be both soldier and shepherd. He must nourish, defend, and teach; he must have teeth in his mouth, and be able to bite and fight.” ~Martin Luther In an interview right before his retirement, a news reporter asked Jerry Vines the question, “Let‟s just say that you could gather every single person on the First Coast to listen to your last sermon here, what would be your message?” Vines answered saying he would speak on a familiar passage from the third chapter of the book of John. “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” He then added, “That‟s the whole thing in a nutshell.” Proclaiming the message of God‟s love from John 3:16 has been the nutshell of Jerry Vines‟ ministry for over 50 years. From small country churches in the red hills of Georgia to meetings with United States Presidents, Jerry Vines‟ ministry has flourished. His retirement from the pastorate and his new focus on preachers marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one. Hearing a message of love from Jerry Vines may not be what some people expect from the nationally known preacher. Indeed, his sermons, his opinions, and his writings cause some to label him controversial, even contentious. “Any time a man preaches the truth of Scripture, that in and of itself becomes controversial in our culture, especially,” Vines says.

  • The Future of Southern Baptists As Evangelicals
    The Future of Southern Baptists as Evangelicals by Steve W. Lemke Provost, New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary for the Maintaining Baptist Distinctives Conference Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary April 2005 Introduction What is the future of Southern Baptists as evangelical Christians? In order to address adequately my assigned topic, I must attempt to answer two questions. First, do Southern Baptists have a future? And second, what future do Southern Baptists have as evangelicals? However, because Southern Baptists have been increasingly engaged in the evangelical world, these two questions are bound inextricably together. I believe that the major issues that will help shape the future of the Southern Baptist Convention arise in large measure from our interface with other evangelical Christian groups over the past few decades. In this presentation, I’ll be suggesting six issues that I believe will play a large role in the future shape of the Southern Baptist Convention. After I describe why I think these issues are so important to the future of Southern Baptist life, I’ll make a prediction or warning about how I’m guessing Southern Baptists will address these issues in the next couple of decades unless something changes dramatically. Let me begin with a few caveats. First, my purpose: I offer this talk as neither a sermon nor as a typical research paper, but my purpose is primarily to spur discussion and dialogue as we seek to address these issues together. Perhaps these ruminations will spark or provoke a helpful dialogue afterward. Second, the spirit with I which present this paper: I am writing from an unapologetically Southern Baptist perspective.
