Southern Baptist convention promotes CRT

Well some of them "knew" exactly what it was and convinced others that it was the right thing to do without explaining it thoroughly. Another example of ppl caving in to political correctness and morality of the day versus morality that God puts forth.

What i dont get , are the professors ( both black ) teaching crt . You would think they might look a little deeper to what it realy is versus just a race thing
 
2Timothy 4:2 preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
3 For a season will be when they will not endure the sound teaching; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts;
4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto the fables.
 
Here's the 2021 SBC resolution on race and racial reconciliation. It doesn't mention Critical Race Theory by name, but talks more generally of any theory or worldview.


WHEREAS, “All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16-17); and

WHEREAS, The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 states, “All Scripture is totally true and trustworthy” (Article I); and

WHEREAS, “God created man in his own image” (Genesis 1:27); and

WHEREAS, “From one man [God] has made every nationality to live over the whole earth” (Acts 17:26); and

WHEREAS, In his prophetic vision John saw “a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language, which no one could number, standing before the throne and before the Lamb” (Revelation 7:9-10); and

WHEREAS, “Sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, in this way death spread to all people, because all sinned” (Romans 5:12); and

WHEREAS, “Through faith [we] are all sons of God in Christ Jesus … There is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male and female; since you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:26-28); and

WHEREAS, “God … has reconciled us to himself through Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Corinthians 5:18); and WHEREAS, The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 states, “Christians should oppose racism” (Article XV); now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the messengers to the Southern Baptist Convention meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, June 15–16, 2021, affirm the sufficiency of Scripture on race and racial reconciliation; and be it further

RESOLVED, That we reaffirm our agreement with historic, biblically-faithful Southern Baptist condemnations of racism in all forms; and be it further

RESOLVED, That we reject any theory or worldview that finds the ultimate identity of human beings in ethnicity or in any other group dynamic; and be it further

RESOLVED, That we reject any theory or worldview that sees the primary problem of humanity as anything other than sin against God and the ultimate solution as anything other than redemption found only in Christ; and be it further

RESOLVED, We, therefore, reject any theory or worldview that denies that racism, oppression, or discrimination is rooted, ultimately, in anything other than sin; and be it further

RESOLVED, That, understanding we live in a fallen world, we reaffirm the 1995 Resolution On Racial Reconciliation On The 150th Anniversary Of The Southern Baptist Convention, which includes, “That we apologize to all African-Americans for condoning and/or perpetuating individual and systemic racism in our lifetime; and we genuinely repent of racism of which we have been guilty, whether consciously (Psalm 19:13) or unconsciously (Leviticus 4:27),” applying this disposition to every instance of racism; and be it finally

RESOLVED, We affirm that our reconciliation in Christ gives us the opportunity and responsibility to pursue reconciliation with others so that we can display and share the hope of the gospel with the world.
 
I attend a Church because the Pastor of it teaches Scripture. That Church is generally aligned with the SBC, however, when the SBC is in error we do not feel bound to their errors. Every Church Assembly, no matter it's title is bound to and will be judged by Our Master for our teaching. I am often called a variety of misnomers by people purporting to be Christians but their ideas of our Triune God are not scriptural. That leaves me questioning, "Christian?" I am not attending the SBC for my Spiritual Education.

How many christians even know about or read or even know the concerns of The SBC "1995 Resolution On Racial Reconciliation" statement, and why was it needed. even on this channel you might find 3 people that even know about it and why it was drawn up.

Why would something in the past should be brought up? And why do we need a statement of "reaffirm". Personally it is only but another meeting, with no significance.

My vote is:
(2 Tim. 2)ASV
"Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2And the things which thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. 3Suffer hardship with me ,
as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier"

I thank GOD I am a Child of the LIVING GOD" and not a christian!

American Standard Version
that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

Through all of the racial injustices that many have suffered, will be rewarded by GOD Himself! "A Child of The LIVING GOD" do not worry about stuff like that! christians do. The more pain and injustices and suffering through such things as this, the more "Brighter the GLORY". For the True Child of GOD!

Thank GOD for The WORD!
