So the president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary now presumes to speak for the whole of Christianity? I am sure that all the other denominations will be grateful that Mohler has relieved them of that tiresome burden.
I was raised to believe that humility was a Christian virtue. Mohler appears to belong to that section of the Southern Baptist community who have abandoned that requirement, perhaps as being doctrinally unsound - or just inconvenient. |
We were always told that humility was a virtue as well, but in practice it either was forgotten completely, or else there was a load of false humility - ranging from the "I'm so pitiful aren't I awesome" bit to the "I thank Jesus that I am so awesome - it's not me, it's Him, but aren't I awesome" bit.
Not to say there wasn't justified pride, but that's not what I was highlighting.
