Sacred Cow: The Sinner’s Prayer

This week, the Southern Baptist Convention will be voting on a resolution to “commend” the Sinner’s Prayer as sound and biblical. (h/t to David Croom who blogged about it here) The Sinner’s Prayer has become the centerpiece of salvation for some Baptist churches and many in the Evangelical movement. For the record, I am not Baptist. In fact I am the polar opposite, fellowshipping with an offshoot of the Church of Christ. So I come at this with a certain degree of hostility.

So rather than jumping on my soapbox, I’ll let others do that for me.
