The recommendation by the elders of Bethlehem concerning proposed changes to policy on Baptism and Church Membership, has been put on hold. The original recommendation proposed that changes to the constitution be voted on at the annual business meeting in December. The church announced recently that the elders are (for now, I presume) withdrawing that recommendation.
Info on the original proposal is still available at DesiringGod.org or at the church’s website. There was by no means unanimous support, although many were enthusiastic concerning this.
For now, Bethlehem has asked for prayer for the elders as they continue to consider this issue.
