Claiming any Baptist distinctives while holding the tenets of Reformed Theology in light of history's accounts of persecution of Baptists by the Reformers-Calvinists, and theological disparities is for lack of better(worse) words, an oxymoron-compromise. You could put hypocrite in there also. Kind of like professing Christianity, and voting for "change"-Obama.
Compromise a "buzzword"??? Only if you're not clear on your
convictions.
e.g., quotes by ericwgreene
"I know what my KJV says and I stand by it"
"Personally, I prefer the ESV."
"I myself am a Reformed -Baptist"
"my
convictions have
changed"
"I choose to reference the works of many different theological perspectives to
deepen
both my own convictions but also to understand the perspective of others."
