Baptist Distinctive II: A Regenerate Church

I am convinced this distinctive is what the purity and witness of a local church falls or stands on. One can point to many issues in local churches, and they typically trace back to the fact that unbelievers have taken charge and tarnished the witness of the gospel. It is…
