There can be a number of reasons, many of them bordering on ridiculous. Congregations can say whatever they want, but to remain a SBC affiliated congregation, they must adhere in belief with the SBC Statement of belief, which seldom/rarely/never changes more than a comma or adjective. Today's SBC Belief statement is pretty much the same as it was 90 years ago.
The big disagreement for a while was a congregation voting to call a woman to pastor a congregation. I have no idea if that belief (against) will ever change, but I am too smart to say never.
Right or wrong, I have referred to some congregations as "Cinderblock Baptist" The ones I see as that type are very conservative. They probably saw Paul as a blatant liberal (LOL)

quote:Fire, brimstone, Hell and damnation are pounded at the pulpit. That's how I was raised my entire childhood. I have 2 uncles that are long time Holiness & Assembly of God pastors. I was raised to fear God and fear for my life if I sinned. I remember burning cassette tapes of Led Zepplin/ACDC/Stones in barn fires outside on church grounds because they taught us that was Satan music. It was all so ridiculous when I think back to those sermons and teachings.
"Cinderblock Baptist"
Once an adult, I moved away from that rigid teaching and always got more from a pastor that taught with a loving, kind, and reverent approach. Our God is a merciful God.
