A 🧵about the SBC, @GuidepostGlobal, the #SATF, and the upcoming #sbc22.
I am amazed at how ignorant many in the SBC are. I don't mean that pejoratively. I didn't say stupid; I said ignorant. We are so insulated that we don't know how the world operates. What do I mean?

Well, for starters, we have at least one Provost of our 6 seminaries that was ignorant of federal law that he is required to follow. And it wasn't some obscure, arcane law. Its a basic and fundamental law of higher education called FERPA. I caught a provost breaking FERPA.
I DM'd him and told him he was breaking FERPA and his response was "What's FERPA?". So then I had explain fundamental privacy laws because he didn't know. How could he not know? Because he spent his entire life in an SBC bubble. How does this relate to the SATF?
Some thoughts on this.
1. @johnmacarthur shouldn't have to pull out. He should have been thrown out by @Ligonier days ago.
2. Anyone who seriously thinks Lig is going to touch MacArthur is delusional. Lig and Mac are tight and have been for years.

3. Not only are Ligon and John tight as friends, but their business models are also intertwined as well. Ligonier advertises at #ShepCon & vice versa...."A rising tide lifts all boats." Many of the fanatical "Mac"olytes move freely between the 2 & buy resources from both.
4. The real issue here is a culture, unfortunately NOT specific to John/@GraceComChurch, is that John (or another elder) is the king of an religious business empire where nobody holds him actually accountable. Same with @Phil_Johnson_. @ModernDayZorro has several examples.
