Ronnie Floyd recently announced the members he has named to participate in the Committee of Committees, chosen to nominate the committee members who will actually do the nominating of leaders of various positions in the SBC for 2016.

New York Senator, William L. Marcy, coined the phrase “to the victor goes the spoils” in 1828 and this phrase, in turn, was used to characterize the corrupt “spoils system” that plagued the United States government until sweeping reforms ended the practice.

Once in a while, I’ll have a conversation with a pastor, usually a Southern Baptist pastor, who has read some of my articles, and find it puzzling that I would be calling out such leaders as Russell Moore or Ronnie Floyd.

It is no doubt that Russell Moore has worked his way up to the top of the largest Protestant denomination in the world, only to promote ecumenism and UN-friendly ideas through the use of his position within the Church. But there is more to it. The Ethics and Religious Liberties Commission as a whole is … Read more
President of Southern Baptist Convention, Ronnie Floyd, has for some time been known to dabble with questionable theology. He endorses the First Fruits tithing heresy of Robert Morris and also endorses the contemplative mystic, Mark Batterson and his new age book, the Circle Maker.

Twenty-one Egyptians who were being held by Islamic extremists were executed yesterday. They were decapitated. They were killed because they were not Muslims and because that’s what the extremists do…they kill people, savagely, brutally, horribly, sinfully.

He has endured relentless and pagan attacks like a warrior.” — BPC Trustee These words from a nameless Brewton-Parker College trustee need to live in infamy.

The proponents of racial reconciliation within the Church, especially the Southern Baptist Church, continue to propagate this idea that we need to set aside our differences and reconcile our racial divide.
