As I listen to the Southern Baptist Convention, one thing I notice is that the pedigree of all leaders presented consists of how many people their church has in attendance (from # to #). Next is how large their budget is, and somewhere is the building program they have or are a part of. Baptisms are thrown in there at the end, but I surmise that those are mostly children or denominational changes. As I read in ACTS, I only hear if SOULS added to the church.
It’s all about appearances not Holiness, Truth, Growth.
