I am not sure I understand the rationale of your comment. Who are “they”? And to whom are you directing the comment?

Here is an example of a healthy vermont church in the same county (other than my home church), notice how even sunday school attendance far outstrips membership:

Yes, I have heard of this group of extreme hyper-Calvinists. In fact, I first found out about them through my blog. For details see the comments of this post (Andrew C. Bain is from Outside the Camp):

Very good post. I am past tired of the straw man arguments employed by Ergun (a la White & Ascol).

This deplorable situation recently became evident through an ABC News investigation of sexual molestation in the SBC. Although ABC was slanted and perhaps unfair in their treatment, why did I have to hear about this problem through the secular media? Isn’t judgment to begin in the house of God? Doesn’t our inability to hold ourselves in account violate the principle underlying 1Cor. 6.4-6?

Scripture tells us: “Those who continue in sin, rebuke in the presence of all, so that the rest also may be fearful of sinning.” (1 Timothy 5:20 NASB). Are we no better than the Romans who turn a blind eye to problems and sin in their midst? Do we seriously think that we will escape judgment for constantly picking at the specks in others’ eyes while we ignore and silence critique on the beams in our own?

I very nearly wrote a Resolution for San Antonio addressing these issues, but decided to wait one more year.

The article was removed. It was taken down by the editor of Baptist Press. Baker’s “First Person” article was posted the same time as Ergun Caner’s. The fact is that the article was taken down for other reasons than aforementioned in my post (plagiarism or inaccurate statements).

I appreicate your concern, but had I believed I was jumping the gun in what I have said, I would not have posted it.
