For the next week (or so) at SFL, we’ll be exploring the “Baptist Distinctives” as typically implemented in fundamentalist churches. In case you need a refresher as to what the Baptist Distinctives are, here’s a handy acronym.

B Biblical Authority
A Autonomy of the Local Church
P Priesthood of the Believers
T Two Ordinances of the Church
I Individual Soul Liberty
S Saved and Baptized Church Membership
T Two Offices of the Church
S Separation Ethically and Ecclesiastically

Now since there are 8 items, I’ll either end up combining some of them, writing more than one post per day or running this “week” for longer than the typical 6 days of post. I haven’t decided yet. I’m just going to let it sneak up on me.
