Seminary
Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Theological posture
Conservative evangelical
Not necessarily Reformed. Doctrinally conservative Baptist, fundamentalist and non-denominational schools with statements of faith on inerrancy and creation. They differ from the Westminster Standards on matters such as baptism, church government and eschatology. A good fit for families seeking a conservative education that is not strictly Reformed.
Doctrinal basis. Faculty adhere to the Abstract of Principles (1858) and the Baptist Faith and Message, and affirm that the Bible is without any error (Wikipedia).
Points to weigh
