The trustees of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission declared their intention to #Resist the will of the Southern Baptist Convention. The SBC’s Executive Committee appointed a Study Group to examine how the ERLC’s past and present actions have harmed the spirit of cooperation in the SBC.
How did the SBC’s Elites respond?
In a letter posted on the ERLC website, the trustees announced they would order the ERLC and its staff to not cooperate with the investigation.
They called the investigation “unwarranted, divisive, and disrespectful.”
Divisive? Disrespectful?
Did they read Russell Moore’s 2016 Op-Eds against conservative Southern Baptist voters?
