Summary

Dr. Leighton Flowers is joined by the President of the Southern Baptist Convention and the Senior Pastor at Bellevue Baptist Church, Steve Gaines, Ph.D.

Topics discussed:

1. Unity doesn't equal silence: Traditionalists can speak out for what they believe is true while still seeking unity in the convention.

2. The Sinner's Prayer: Is it biblical or should it be done away with as a manmade tool to manipulate false conversions?

3. Altar Calls: The Gospel must contain an "appeal" to believe in order to be called the Gospel.

4. Closet Calvinism: Why it is important to ask good questions if you serve as a Trustee or on a pulpit committee.

5. Calvinism in the SBC: Where are we going and what is going to happen in the future? What can we practically do to help the SBC from going toward Calvinism?
