Comments on: Wade’s Motion 2 http://www.twelvewitnesses.com/2006/06/13/wades-motion-2/ Let these stones be a witness to what we have done here this day. Tue, 22 Nov 2011 19:54:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: BrianinMO http://www.twelvewitnesses.com/2006/06/13/wades-motion-2/#comment-1263 BrianinMO Wed, 14 Jun 2006 01:51:00 +0000 http://www.twelvewitnesses.com/?p=178#comment-1263 I just listened to the debate. Wade was very well spoken in speaking in favor of the referral, but publicly putting the trustee chairman and all trustees on public notice to seriously seek to address the issues openly and forthrightly. It was shocking to me that Bobby Welch, the moderator, spoke in favor of the referral when he knows the moderator/chair should be as neutral as possible in such a situation. I was watching online, and his body language/facial expressions indicated extreme discomfort with the points being made by those speaking against referral. No one else was making the points he wanted made, so he just did it himself! Even though it was referred, the IMB trustees are now on the spot to address these issues seriously. If they do not, they will have no reasonable excuses next year. I just listened to the debate.

Right now, www.baptiststoday.org shows 15 headlines for today--14 of them about SBC happenings. The other--and more important--headline: "Chinese Authorities Detain 28 Christians (Christian Post)". Man! The SBC needs to get things right tonight and this week, so that we can deal together with the much more important things--like 28 Chinese brothers in the Lord facing what they are now in their homeland. God, help us today. It’s 7:20 PM on your blog’s clock. Right now, http://www.baptiststoday.org shows 15 headlines for today–14 of them about SBC happenings.
