What were the two new statements to be added to the doctrinal statement, Matt?
Proposed Doctrinal Statement #22: We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman. We believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication, adultery, and pornography are sinful perversions of God's gift of sex. We believe that God disapproves and forbids any attempt to alter one's gender by surgery or appearance. (Genesis 2:24, Genesis 19:5, 13, Genesis 26:8-9; Leviticus 18:1-30, Romans 1:26-29; 1 Corinthians 5:1; 1 Corinthians 6:9; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8; 2 Timothy 3:1-4; Hebrews 13:4)
Proposed Doctrinal Statement #23: We believe that the only legitimate marriage is the joining of one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24; Romans 7:2; 1 Corinthians 7:10; Ephesians 5:22-23)
If I'm not mistaken, I've seen those two particular statements in the doctrinal statements of First Missionary Baptist Church in Redlands, CA.
Yes, the individual that brought them forth stated they were from the California Doctrinal Statement.
