Mohler: 'I will accept nomination' as SBC president

Albert Mohler
Ministry Leadership

“I am honored by the announcement by Pastor H. B. Charles, and I will accept nomination as president of the Southern Baptist Convention in June… All my life, I have sought to serve whenever asked by my denomination, and I would hope, if elected, to serve in a way that would unite Southern Baptists, strengthen our work together, add energy to our evangelism, and keep our hearts set on taking the [G]ospel to the nations.” - BPNews

I suspect Mohler feels strongly enough about many current trends in the SBC that he’s willing to serve as President, if elected. Is complementarianism (what a mouthful; a horrible term!) that big of a deal for him? Who knows. Mohler always does things very carefully, very thoughtfully and very strategically. He would never have uttered the “go home” comment. Just see how upset he was when Phil Johnson tried to get him to go on the record about hot-button issues at the recent Shepherd’s Conference.

Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.

“Maybe a real Godly Person like Beth Moore or Rachel DeHollander is what the SBC needs instead of twisted corrupt Male Pastors and Leaders who believe the sexual abuse of children is youthful folly. “

What does a person being male have to do with anything? Both men & women are equal in their capacity for error, sin, and abuse of power.

From all the criticism of the SBC that is posted on here, I would think you all were experts. Anybody?

I was addressing the board of experts here at SI who constantly criticize the SBC, and who know all the intimate details of SBC life. Note I hit reply to your question, which causes a “Jim wrote” post title. I did not address you directly, I merely quoted you.
