Friend, I suppose I'm dense and have friends to prove it, but I don't quite get the drift of your question. All Baptists across our world are by no means cut from the same piece of cloth and one will find diverging theological views among them. Non-denominational theology encompasses, in my view, an even broader spectrum. Is there such an entity, really, as non-denominaional theology? I wonder. Some of the more noted points of Baptist doctrine that one would be likely to get a concensus on among a majority of Baptists I should think would be the eternal security of the believer, the priesthood of the believer, baptism defined as immersion, salvation by grace alone, the rite of baptism by the consent of the believer (which excludes infant baptism), the authority and inerrancy of Scripture. There may be more, but I believe my list will find sanction among most Baptists, especially Southern Baptists. Now concerning non-denominational theology, I suspect that many churches who subscribe to no organization outside their own congregation would surely find a common bond with other non-denominational churches on a great number of issues. But I suspect also that the differences may be greater and more widespread than would be the case where a number of churches attempt at least to wave the same banner. This answer, if it is one, may run far afield of what you wished to elicit by your question, but I've given it my best shot. Perhaps you'd like to recast your question, or perhaps a better head than mine on the Forum will be able to add something. God's blessings! Hank. | ||||||
