A good bit of the negative vibrations in certain circles concerning Dr. Albert Mohler revolves around a couple of events at last year’s convention in San Antonio. Here are a couple of video clips from San Antonio – SBC Convention ’07. Watch them and you be the judge.

The Garner BFM2000 Motion

The Baptist Faith and Message is not a creed, or a complete statement of our faith, nor final or infallible; nevertheless we further acknowledge that it is the only consensus statement of doctrinal beliefs approved by the Southern Baptist Convention and as such is sufficient in its current form to guide trustees in their establishment of policies and practices of entities of the Convention.

Tell me, after listening to him, do you think Dr. Mohler “gave to our denomination the proverbial finger” within the context of this seminary address?I also have to ask one question: What sober-thinking brother, committed to sola Scriptura would honestly want this motion to govern the faculty-hiring practices of our seminary trustees? On second thought, maybe the majority of messengers present and voting at the 2007 convention didn’t know the full implications of what they were voting on.
