A Cooperating Baptist

I'm concerned that we are continuing to expand what it means to be a cooperating Southern Baptist. Does it mean to embrace the latest edition of the Baptist Faith & Message? Does it mean to give 10% of your church's undesignated receipts through the Cooperative Program? Does it mean that a trustee decision is embraced even if it is a bad decision? Will it later mean that we must baptize a certain number? Will it later mean I must embrace some theological system like Calvinism or the like?

Just some musings from a country preacher concerned for his beloved SBC.
