Dr. Albert Mohler is a
good Southern Baptist, a staunch Evangelical, and I appreciate that. I am sure
that he is quite brilliant, as well. He has posted many excellent commentaries
which I enjoy reading even when he forthrightly declares that the Catholic
Church is wrong. It's a breath of fresh air, really. He is the kind
of fellow with whom I would want to engage in serious ecumenical
dialogue. When it comes to the Catholic Church, Dr. Mohler gives credit
where credit is due. Refreshingly, as I indicated, he also calls it like he
sees it when he thinks the Catholic Church is wrong on a theological matter. He
has often said,"A true evangelical, committed to the Gospel as recovered
in the Reformation, and a true Roman Catholic, committed to the teachings of
the magisterium, are the last two people on earth who can have an honest
disagreement." See what I mean?
In this post,
he comments on the President's decision to require religious institutions to
violate God's teaching: "Every president faces decisions that test
his character and principles. President Obama has failed this test, and the
results will be tragic. He has trampled religious liberty underfoot and has
announced his intention to force religious institutions to violate their
consciences or go out of business." Good stuff.
