Now that this information has been exposed publicly, I pray that we may live to see some public repentance and humility. I made a personal decision to dis-associate myself with the SBC when I began to see these tendencies locally a number of years ago. Thank you, Justin Peters for bringing us up to date.

I attended the college from '18 to '20. Left because i saw the writing on the wall when they were harrassing Dr. Lopez and other students for having "unaligned" (for lack of better phrasing) positions with the school on a couple issues, which resulted in Dr. Lopez being fired the next semester. They also fired Dr. Mark Jansen at that time too. Their were 14 profs in the college at that time and those two were hands down the best at TEACHING and knowing the material that they were teaching. Ive looked at the staff since then and it looks like only Dr. Heister is still there (even the dean was replaced). I know little about him though. Edit: just finished the video. A point about student staff and putting food on the table: i made $8.50 an hour as student staff, and my wife went to the breadline every week for our 3 kids and we stretched that food out each week (i even made a garden at the student housing we were in to supplement the food) and now i learn about this extravagance.... betrayel seems like a good word here. My neighbor was a PhD student and worked 2 jobs on campus, and he, his wife, and 2 kids were almost anorexic they could never afford enough food.

Dallas Theological Seminary has its own issue, a very BIG problem. DTS teaches the false teaching of John Nelson Darby. It was Darby who, in the 1800s, introduced the heretical teaching of a Rapture of God's church before the Tribulations. There is no clear indication of this in the Bible. Darby also introduced the false doctrine of dispensation or dispensationalism. Darby even had his own Bible translation. The only way for SWBTS to "pull" through is to break away from the SBC - but since it's the SBC who controls the school and its teachings, highly unlikely.

I worked for government for a while and sat through council meetings and representative meetings. Once I was invited to an SBC meeting and it was just as corrupt as the government. We quit going to church when they changed the music and when everything was either a Beth Moore or Rick Warren Study. We could see things creeping in that just didnt line up Biblically. They have even started hosting yoga classes in many SBC churches. We would love to be in a good Bible teaching church but have no clue where to turn. So many are cults. 😢

It declined further when the 'worship' of the golden elephant and alignment with worldly politics increased. The falling away is not caused by those on the "outside". It's ALL about the money, follow the money.

Thank you for speaking the truth. I just finished attending the SBC down in Louisiana. I felt it's a lot of politics. Im not even part of their activities or ministry work. A friend invited me. I just have a lot of negative thoughts in my mind. Im not perfect but i feel like God said to me be careful. In my life i thought, if you love God, you work for God at no cost.

We were so glad to be done when we were because of the then-new-presidency. I was so hopeful that when he left things would get better, and I'm so sad to see that wasn't the case. Oh dear Jesus, have mercy.

Thank you for sharing this information. I’m no preacher but I do read my Bible every day snd I do know that GOD’s word speaks of these things that will happen in the church. Your correct each of us will give an account before the LORD for our actions not those of others. I was raised in the Baptist church the same one my mom attended and I remember Sunday school. When I was older coming home in leave from the military I can still hear the pastor preaching the real gospel staying true to the teachings of JESUS. This fire snd brimstone messages are what I miss; turn or burn hot home. Unfortunately in many churches the message has been toned down the word is not being taught but misaligned into man’s version of the gospel message. Now as I look around I see that many of the things the Bible talked about the events that would are happening today and seem to get worse each and every day. Justin you just stay you and keep on exposing those that are harmful to the good news that are causing people to become confused and many leaving the church all together. I pray the GOD will Bless you and your family and protect those that are bold and speaking repentance to a rapidly changing world; changing for the worse.

You sound just like my mother always sounded. She was very Godly, practical and frugal and she thought just like you're talking about being aghast at things like you're talking about. This man is an example of mankind's so easily getting a swelled head. It could happen to anyone if we take our eyes off of God. I'm talking not about you in this paragraph, but that someone could do the things this former president did would have had my mother shaking her head that anyone who was supposedly Godly could even think of doing as this man has done. She was such a great example for me. I've said before that my mother and all of her family lived their Christianity every day of their lives. I was so blessed to have been born into this lovely family. They weren't perfect people, but they understood that. I never saw any of them show human ego about anything..

Thank you Mr Justin Peters for exposing these important issues, honesty in stewardship is extremely important. The strongest rebuke that Jesus ever gave was regarding a lack of accountability in stewardship, at times for lack or improper use of funds, and sometimes for improperly teaching God words.

Sadly the church I go to is affiliated with the Southern Baptist name but, thankfully, they are a true Bible-believing church. They preach on the entire Bible through a year or break apart specific books over an entire year. They encourage the congregation to read their Bible daily and truly have a desire to see souls saved. They keep us all accountable on remaining in study groups on Sunday mornings in addition to church service, Equip nights on Wednesdays where they have table conversations led by a pastor, they have 3 rotating pastors on staff, and I’ve witnessed many times them handle a sinful situation the Biblical way. They are honest about it without giving details and don’t lie to the congregation and make up a story. I have been a part of WoF and NAR before but I’ve also been to many other churches. I really just don’t understand why they don’t go independent Baptist instead. In addition, I’ve used an $11,000 espresso machine at a job before. It was gorgeous but too expensive to fix when it broke. I have my dream machine that is $600-$700, but my $150 one has worked for almost 10 years just as well. No single person home needs an $11,000 espresso machine. Sorry, I just was stuck on that. Having one, I know they don’t have to be that expensive.

New Testament Jesus fulfilled the law so that the 10% tithe is not demanded of the Christian; in its place the New Testament talks about the importance and benefits of giving. We choose how to give with a cheerful heart. ❤ “Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7). The churches and groups that push giving to get wealthy and avoid wrath are manipulating the flock.

No question, there are honorable men and women who serve Christ within the southern Baptist tradition. The problem is when the high ups in the denomination ladder have an elitist view that think that they can do as they please without any kind of accountability. An authority who thinks that they are above being confronted needs to be separated from. That was my experience with the SBC and I do not see myself ever going back to a SBC church.

I was from a Baptist Church in Asia. Our church was founded by SBC missionaries. Baptist churches here would send seminarians to SBC seminaries Like the SBC, my former church has shifted a bit. While we do not have female pastors due to our history, the senior pastor has preached that he would hope that we could have female pastors preaching in the future. I left shortly after, though I would like to be back one day I know that the current church that I am in would not send any seminarian to most evangelical seminaries as they are, seeing how certain troubling issues have crept in
