The guys sit down to discuss the Southern Baptist Convention—what’s good, and what’s bad. They’ve done this a few times (here and here, for example), but this is a response to questions about where the JoFo lands on some current controversies. It is sure to not satisfy everyone. What is good in the SBC, and what’s wrong in the SBC? LIsten up! REFERENCES The Convictional Cooperation of the Southern Baptist Convention by Al Mohler Interesting Times and Changing Times in the SBC, by Tom Ascol OUR SPONSOR Starting this month, Zondervan is delighted to publish new, beautiful Bibles in the NASB 1995 text with Zondervan’s new exclusive NASB Comfort Print® typeface. Zondervan has once again partnered with 2K/Denmark to create this brand-new typeface for all new NASB Bibles published by Zondervan. Another new NASB Bible coming out this month is the Zondervan NASB Preacher’s Bible. It is a beautiful text Bible in its own right, but it also has one very practical feature – it matches page for page with the NASB Pew and Worship Bible. So, you as a preacher will literally be on the same page as your congregation. And for those wanting a premium Bible that will last, check out this Bible in Zondervan Premier Collection.

The guys are back and finish up chapter 16, on Good Works, from the 1689 Confession. Why are our works, even if “good” in capable of meriting eternal life? How are our good works, even if corrupt, acceptable and pleasing to God? And how does God see the works of non-Christians? Plus, Joe is dealing with customer service, and Jimmy’s photo of Joe becomes a meme.
