SBC Breaks Off Talks With Roman Catholic Church

 

New York - The Southern Baptist Convention is halting 30 years of official doctrinal talks with the U.S. Roman Catholic Church. "We're not ecumenists. We're evangelicals committed to sharing the Gospel," said the Rev. R. Philip Roberts, who formerly handled interfaith relations with the North American Mission Board.Though the denomination's 1994 meeting endorsed talks with Catholics, Roberts said "many Southern Baptists because suspicious of these discussions." There was never any prospect of organizational union. Christianity Today, March 23, 2001 (We tried to find the original source came up zero)
