The Nashville Statement affirms in 14 articles God’s plan for Sexuality and denies the perversion of current Western Culture in the realm of prevailing thought of LBGBTQ (XYZ ETC) practices et al. You can read the statement which came of the Southern Baptist Ethics Committee and was signed by men like Tony Perkins, James Dobson and John Piper and many others. It is totally consistent with conservative Biblical teaching and doctrine on sexuality and gives a clearcut statement against sexual sin and perversion as well as a Grace statement affirming salvation that is available for ALL. You can read and sign the Statement here: cbmw.org/nashville-statementIt is worth your time to read and sign. It also will help clarify your own positions which may help you down the road as Evangelical Churches come under more pressure to be inclusive and are persecuted for their stands against trans-genderism and homosexuality.More information can be found in this article from Charisma Mag. here:www.charismanews.com/politics/issues/67070-john-piper-james-dobson-and-john-macarthur-join-hands-to-stand-against-apostasy
I don’t see anything new here – but I am sure there are those that won’t sign it so as not to offend.Jesus ate with sinners, right, so he wouldn’t sign nothing like that________________
CBMW is an organization that limits women in leadership in the church. They had gone so far as to claim that the Son is eternally subordinate to the Father in order to justify their claims that women should be subordinate (although when Kevin Giles called them on that, some backtracked and claimed that women’s subordination doesn’t actually depend on the Son being eternally subordinate after all).Their article IV is not clearly defined, but if you have followed their organization, you understand that they believe a husband’s dominion over his wife is not a result of the Fall as is indicated in Genesis. In other words, they believe that a man’s dominion over his wife is God’s original design even though there is nothing in the Genesis account to suggest that.
