It sends a clear message to differentiate from a Hope/Grace/Cross churcb which will probably be an Emergent Church (ie run and don't look back). Some took the baptist out of the name so that you will join even if you weren't born into a baptist family.

Everything will have been so diluted by the New World Order bibles that the only KJV adherents remaining will be IFB 2.0 "dot-churches".<br /><br />On the other hand, I do agree with you that the label becomes superfluous once a new believer has tasted the church for the first time. It may take them a while to discern the difference between Plain Vanilla Congregational Assembly and Firebreathing Baptist, but they will recognize the hard preaching from the KJV when they come across it and will stick with it after they find it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1188521836105870276.post-59268635655445165022016-08-22T17:57:08.304-07:002016-08-22T17:57:08.304-07:00The church I attend just changed its name from Lan...The church I attend just changed its name from Landmark Baptist to Hope Bible Church. The name was changed for doctrinal reasons though, to let people know that we do not agree with Baptist doctrine. My pastor preached a sermon on it if you would like to watch:<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABrPm0KHqkg<br /><br />A lot of Baptists believe in works salvation, which is my biggest problem with them. <br /><br />I like your statement: "There are a few churches out there that do not have "Baptist" in the name but are still great churches. I’m not saying that a church has to be called "Baptist" to be right with God. Calling our church "Baptist" is a preference as opposed to a conviction..."<br /><br />God bless.<br />bro.

Tongue-talking, holy seizures, various and sundry conniptions. Don't get me wrong, I used to could bust a move on the flo, but I got old. I'll stick with Baptist, thank you.
