Stop saying sorry for complementarianism, EMA told

Evangelicals should stop apologising for being complementarian, the keynote speaker at the Evangelical Ministry Assembly (EMA) told the gathering.

Dr Jim Hamilton, Professor of Biblical Theology at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, was being interviewed by Gwilym Davies of The Proclamation Trust, which arranges the three-day event in London.

Asked by Davies, ‘How may we best live the Christian life?’, Hamilton responded: ‘I think the pull of the world is weakened the stronger we are rooted in the Bible. We need to remember that giving in to temptation means siding with the serpent. Conversely, the more we stay true to Scripture, the more we grow in holiness.
