Wade, thank you for attempting to return to the original thread...a major undertaking, if you ask me. BL is well known for thread drifts.
Back to the point...does anyone think Jerry Rankin and the administrators at the IMB are so dense that they would do anything to alienate their largest supporter, BGCT???? I think not. To me these ideas come from the same people who sought to get rid of Dr. Rankin.
If we are an evangelical denomination, then let us support evangelical agencies, not try to discredit them.
