Talk:Baptist Distinctives

Latest comment: 13 years ago by Novaseminary in topic Redirect to Baptist beliefs

I came across this article and added one citation. I think I have a book somewhere with this information in it too, but I can't find it.

It should be noted that though I did not remove these entries from the article, the Baptist Distinctives are very specifically only the B-A-P-T-I-S-T-S acrostic, and not the other stuff (premillenialism, etc) that was mentioned. First time editing, so I left it.

I removed the following sentence from the opening section:

"Baptists who continue to hold the foundational beliefs of Christianity define marriage as the union of one man and one woman."

First of all, it is out of context in an introduction to Baptist beliefs. And while it is probably true that many or most Baptists would define marriage that way, the wording is not NPOV, it implies that those who do not hold such a definition necessarily reject other Baptist beliefs, and it omits an article-length discussion that might ensue over such a topic to jump to a conclusion.
