He's a man of convictions and depth who has the guts to stand by his convictions even if it makes him unpopular. Obviously that is not a very 'welcomed' thing among some of the AFF crowd.
If you don't share his convictions, fine. But why attack someone over something they have a conviction over? It simply shows the shallowness of some on this forum.
For the record, I have spoken to Bro. Booker at some length and have NEVER heard him trash one person by name. I've never heard him put ONE PERSON IN HELL over this resolution. His mentality is simply, "I don't agree and will find fellowship elsewhere to protect what I believe is best for my church."
Oddly enough, I don't see that mentality reciprocated on this thread... or forum much for that matter.
In regards to his license? He say he isn't sure what he'll do and will have to make up his mind when the time comes.
Those are the facts... Not that facts would matter to those who would rather carry a club to pummel than 'good intentions'.
Sad.

I agree in part at least...and am sorry if my interaction on this thread has contributed to unfair criticism....I have tried to present the sermon facts in order to keep it straight since it is a topic this morning...
I do not agree with him...I do not like to hear sermons with little scriptural backing (but understand that sometimes it is more of a "state of the union" address than a sermon)....I am not accustomed any more to the use of multiple "scare stories" to prove a spiritual point (which to me serve to elicite some emotional response through the means of fear)...but hey,
LB can preach what he wants to preach and it's no skin off my teeth.
I have also repeatedly tried to encourage people to go to:

and listen to the sermon for themselves if they care to....
