A recent conference at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary featured speakers addressing topics set forth in the article on âThe Churchâ in the Southern Baptist Conventionâs Baptist Faith and Message statement. Upon This Rock gathers those presentations and answers such questions as:
⢠What is the basis for our denominational distinctives? ⢠Are they merely a collection of âfaded traditionsâ or true doctrinal necessities rooted in the Bible alone? ⢠Are they theologically rich cornerstones of faith that easily transcend time, culture, and preference?
Contributors include Malcolm B Yarnell III (âUpon This Rock I Will Build My Church: A Theological Exposition of Matthew 16:13-20â), Paige Patterson (âObserving the Two Ordinances of Christâ), Thomas and Joy White (âChurch Officers and Gender: Can Women Be Pastors? Or Deacons?â) and Bart Barber (âA Denomination of Churches: Biblical and Usefulâ) as well as Jason G. Duesing, David Allen, Emir F. Caner, James Leo Garrett, Jr., and Byron McWilliams.
