	Lakeland Baptist Association (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Baptist churches, while asserting their local autonomy, “self-rule,” or freedom from outside governance, nonetheless often choose to cooperate locally in groups known as associations.
		Associations are understood as communities of faith through which churches express their spiritual kinship and mutual concern.
		The association is the oldest denominational body among Baptists, dating back to the 17th century in England, and to the founding of the Philadelphia Association in America in 1707.

	Association will stretch past borders
		Traditionally, associations are comprised of churches of similar faith and practice within a defined, and usually small, geographic territory inside the borders of one state.
		The new association has been prompted by ostracism several out-of-state moderate churches have felt from their local associations and state conventions, as well as some Texas churches' frustrations with their own associations, Mason said.
		Planners intend for the new association to be strongly affiliated with and supportive of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, Mason stressed.

	Landmarkism - BaptistBoard.com
		Actually, Landmarkism is the Baptist form of Campbellism; it developed parallel with, at the same time as, and as a reaction to the Campbellite (Church of Christ) movement, which claimed to have the only real baptism in the only true church.
		Though there are many variations among Landmark Baptists, the general idea of Landmarkism is that the New Testament churches were baptistic in doctrine, that such churches have existed in uninterupted succession from the time of Christ, and that only such churches have a valid ministry and valid baptism.
		Today, Landmark Baptist beliefs are found primarily in the American Baptist Association and the Baptist Missionary Association, and to a lesser degree within the Baptist Bible Fellowship and various independent Baptist movements.

	THE DOWN GRADE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		I never sought from the Association the consideration of “a credal basis”; but on the contrary, when offered that my resignation might stand over till such a consideration had taken place, I assured the brethren that what I had done was final, and did not depend upon their action in the matter of a creed.
		The attempt, therefore, to obtain a basis of union in the Association, whatever may be thought of it, should be viewed as a matter altogether apart from me, for so indeed it has been.
		Baptist ministers are pastors of separate churches, which may associate with other churches, or cease to associate with them, as they judge best; but the minister and the church are not dependent upon the associations they may choose or decline.

	WHICH BIBLE REALLY? [PRINTER VERSION]
		During that long pastorate, he led the Minnesota Baptist Association out of the Northern Baptist Convention and led his own church out of the Conservative Baptist Association; he founded Central Baptist Theological Seminary in 1956 and Pillsbury Baptist College in 1957.
		Baptists have a disconcerting history of being repeatedly sucked into newly fabricated "orthodoxies" which are alien to their historic heritage.
		I think it can in part be traced to the spirit of anti-intellectualism which has pervaded Baptists historically, and which has led to a failure among Baptists generally to study their own history and the doctrinal views of Baptists historically.

	A Response to Judson Association
		We are a partner congregation of the Baptist Peace Fellowship of North America and a founding member of the Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists.
		The scriptures that you cite on your letterhead when read in context do not refer to the mutual love two people of the same power level who are of the same gender have for each other and the expression of such love.
		As Baptists, we respect the right and the responsibility of each individual to make up their own minds about the interpretation of Holy Scripture with the Holy Spirit as the guide and the community as the sounding board.

	Textual Criticism Fact and Fiction
		Many of my professors had been educated, not in independent Baptist schools, but in colleges and seminaries that can best be described as either conservative protestant, or former Northern Baptists who left the convention but brought much of the furniture and baggage with them when they came out.
		Their schools are often organized apart from the local church, usually owned and governed by a "state association," or a "state fellowship," or they are governed by a "board" of pastors and businessmen.
		The early Baptist church, called "Waldensians" by their enemies, which can be dated to 120 A. D., was known to have quoted from the Traditional text in many of its writings.
