This is awesome news. Al Mohler and Paige Patterson are going to debate Calvinism at the Pastors Conference at the next Southern Baptist Convention. And I agree with Dr. Ascol -- this is a good thing no matter who "wins." The SBC is opening up a theological discussion, about a topic that is hotly contested right now among conservative Southern Baptists. And, as Dr. Ascol mentions, both of these men are friends, and will be so after the debate. I see Calvinist/Arminian debates all the time that are, shall we say, less than friendly. I think that this debate has the potential to show everyone how theological disagreements should be handled, and how two good, evangelical Christians can disagree on things and still work and fellowship together.
