What's more, when Brother Siliven was imprisoned we were there the day he had to report, and went with him to the prison in Marion, Illinois along with Dr. Dixon and other men of God. Our Church, the Eternal Grace Baptist Church, supported him financially while he served his term, until Brother Siliven began espousing defective doctrine. God in HIS Sovereign direction allowed me to be actively involved in the founding of the unregistered Baptist movement, and was eventually publicly awarded with a plaque at the Baptist Temple in 1992. I, too, have preached at the Baptist Temple a number of times over these years. Dr. Dixon has preached in our Church.
Pastoral leadership deems it best to have men come in support as gentlemen.
With all due respect, if you can not or will not stand with Baptist Temple and its Pastoral leadership as they have stated, your presence there on your terms is a bit suspect. Liberty, is Freedom from sin to obey God's Word, the Bible. When True Liberty issues forth it is manifested in soul liberty and political liberty. America once experienced that as a direct result of faithful, brave, Baptist Pastors, among others, during the fledging days of this nation. The LORD God grants liberty.
