Happy Monday, er’ybody! Jimmy and Joe are back to talk about the 1689 Confession and authority in the local church. What authority do elders have, and what authority does the congregation have? Did JMac The Lesser actually say “congregationalism is satanic?” For more of the guys' thoughts on church discipline listen to the 2016 episode on Church Discipline.   Plus, the Southwest Conference in Texas on March 21st is still on!

Joe and Jimmy finally talk about something called, “traditionalism.” Traditionalism is a theological movement in the Southern Baptist Convention that is openly anti-Calvinistic. The guys wanted to jump into this topic because of the increasing online volume of this particular group, and some of the dangerous statements made in Traditionalists' Statement on soteriology. Is Traditionalism really the traditional Southern Baptist theology? Do they only disagree with Calvinism, or do they take issue with other doctrines as well? You can check out the statement here and follow along as Joe and Jimmy talk about it.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
