Southern Baptist Convention Silent on Warren's Reversing The Reformation

Rick Warren and Saddleback Church are in the Southern Baptist Convention. The SBC is the largest Protestant ( born out of the protest against Rome ) denomination in America. Pastor-teacher Ken Silva of Apprising Ministries asks the 64 million dollar question in his article, RICK WARREN REVERSING THE REFORMATION:

How is it that one of the most powerful and prominent pastors in the SouthernBaptist Convention—the largest Protestant denomination in America—flatly contradicts the doctrine of the Reformation he says he believes in and no SBC leader has stepped forward to call him to account for his sin?

Individual SBC pastors have spoken out against the heresy of Rick Warren's theology to little avail. The local SBC pastor and church is autonomous and subject only to oversight within the local congregation. There is no hierarchical governance body over individual SBC churches.

Interesting to note that the SBC, as an organization, does have authority over one SBC entity, Lifeway Publishing. The fact that Lifeway continues to promote Purpose Driven products is a strong indication that an SBC hierarchical governance body, if it existed, would not resist the Purpose Driven, or it's attempt to reverse the Reformation.

Looks like the money changers trump doctrinal purity and Biblical truth.
