Young and Restless
All the right people have been criticizing a message that was preached at the Fundamental Baptist Fellowship southern regional meeting recently. Some of the articles written against it were downright hostile. After reading them I knew I needed to listen with a discerning ear. I have, and you should too. It is called The Young and the Restless and it was presented by Dr. Dan Sweatt, Pastor of the Berean Baptist Church in Lilburn, Georgia.
There is a growing distinction (even division) among ‘old style’, traditional fundamentalism, and Calvinist, sometimes Reformed ‘neo-fundamentalism’. Unimportant theological mumbo-jumbo? Absolutely not. These are serious issues that ought to be examined thoroughly by men of God. So…devote an hour to listen and let me know what you think afterward.

Hi Chris
While Calvinism is the focal point, it isn’t the issue. I think the issue is that some want to forge new alliances with the more conservative evangelicals and are using this uproar as a wedge issue to accomplish their goals.
I’ll have more at my place later.
Maranatha!

I agree Don. This argument is an important one for us to have, and I can’t wait to read what you have to say.
I have further thoughts on the issue too, which you can find here. I had been working on them since I listened to the sermon, but just finished this evening.
