The 2024 Annual Southern Baptist Convention is underway, and despite the heated debate over female pastors being had at the convention, Bart Barber let a woman preach at the convention in a flagrant disregard for Baptist polity and tradition. The preaching came in the guise of prayer, but what followed was a cultish sermonette that would have made John Hagee proud.
Some might say that having a woman lead prayer was a red flag, but regardless, when a woman walked up to the microphone with a giant Star of David necklace, what followed was what one would expect. It’s worth noting that the so-called Star of David is an occultic symbol with zero favorable references in Scripture.
Rather than head bowed eyes closed, the woman looked throughout the room as she explained that Jews are God’s chosen people and prayed over the pagan nation of Modern Israel, stylistically delivered like a New Age guru.
This was the most cringe moment of #SBC24 so far, where a woman preached a literal sermon (disguised as a prayer), praising the modern secular state of Israel. Absolutely bizarre!

It was yet another example of why Paul wrote 1 Timothy 2.

Please stop talking when we are listening to someone.
Sure call tell you are reformed with your distain for Israel. SBC is a mess though!
Do you happen to know if there has been any sort of response afterwards from the SBC, acknowledging their error in allowing her to speak?
