A 19-member advisory committee on Calvinism has issued its report to Southern
Baptist Convention Executive Committee President Frank Page, urging Southern
Baptists to "stand together" for the Gospel, even as "we experience tension."
"We can talk like brothers and sisters in Christ, and we can work
urgently and eagerly together," the 3,200-word report reads. "We have learned
that we can have just this kind of conversation together, and we invite all
Southern Baptists to join together in this worthy spirit of conversation. But
let us not neglect the task we are assigned. The world desperately needs to hear
the promise of the Gospel."
The advisory team -- not an official
committee of the convention -- was assembled by Page in August 2012 to advise
him on developing "a strategy whereby people of various theological persuasions
can purposely work together in missions and evangelism." Read more
