I'll simply repeat what someone wiser already asked on Twitter: Who do you believe, the people who buy silence to protect themselves, or the people who forfeit their severance benefits for the simple opportunity to tell us what they observed?

[richardm]

Wow! Myself a PhD student I hope I can have to boldness to stand up for truth as Dr. Fuller has. I pray God grants the wisdom to see and discern the aberrations like he has so clearly.

[JudeOneThree]

"Creeds are only authoritative as they're consistent with Scripture. We constrain our creeds according to the proper reading of Scripture."
As much as I love creeds, confessions, and catechisms, I have to give a hearty "AMEN!" to this statement.

[MikeGalda]

Excellent interview. As a former student of Dr. Fuller, I have always appreciated both his courage and conviction.

[kjbtw]

Praise Jesus for this Godly talk, praise Jesus for Dr. Fuller and this channel, greetings from taiwan, we desperately need teachers like U 🙌

[TravisMcNeely]

Wow! Shocked but not surprised. Dr. Williams and Dr. Hall teaching CRT as we already knew show with this evidence how pervasive postmodern thought is within the SBC

[dustinsegers]

If you want to know why guys like me didn’t pursue a PhD or a ThD, this video explains it quite clearly. I’m not interested in wondering whether or not I’m going to be able to feed my family in 3 months after getting fired for defending the Bible at a “conservative” seminary.

[fanbrux]

It is the job of the churches to hold the SBC (and its seminaries) accountable for their jobs and their teachings. I am so grateful for Dr. Fuller being willing to forsake his job for the sake of the truth. That speaks volumes. Can't wait for the next smoke & mirrors rebuttal from Southern!

[markbonlastimosa]

Thank you, John and Dr. Fuller!
#SoliDeoGloria🙏

For what it's worth, I took Dr. Pennington for NT 1 in an online format, and I never noticed him propagating any obviously errant views like were stated in this video. But I am concerned about our seminary, and I thank Dr. Fuller for his faithfulness.

[bluepurpleandscarlett]

Thank you for the interview. Dr. Fuller is correct and we're grateful for his commitment to the Bible's authority and the rejection of postmodern hermeneutics.

[JediPastorAaron]

Around 6:30, you quote Dr Pennington’s book and you interpret him about what he believes regarding interpreting authorial intent. I notice you didn’t call him up and let him tell you what his intent in authoring that statement was.

[martinbook]

Will you respond to the SBTS's "response video" to your last interview with doctor Fuller?

Is there any way that Dr Fuller would teach Hebrew through an online course?

[jeffr]

Thank you for your obedience and noting those who are causing divisions and offenses. Praying for you.

[davidlduncanjr]

Proverbs 18:17 always comes to my mind in moments like this.

[michaelpatterson]

Bro - I happen to notice that Southern Seminary is releasing videos several days after yours post with the professors in question. The last two have been with Pennington and Hernanadez. I think they are looking at your videos and initating interviews with these professors as a response. Check them out if you have time.

[patrickharner]

One of my dreams was to someday graduate from the SBTS with an MDiv. This breaks my heart in so many ways. Just goes to show that Jesus is the true hero, not even the guys I've looked up to for so long at SBTS. So thankful that you were able to do this interview and that Dr. Fuller agreed to do it. Maybe an alarm will be sounded in the SBC and this will all turn around? But it seems to run so deep.

[brotherjohnreid]

Good Word about Adam and Genesis 1-3. Is this still an issue?

[nicobrits]

The post-modern professor shows his/her modernity when a student answers the questions on the paper in a post-modern way by giving said student an F.

[biblestudytech]

I saw Pennington’s departure from a biblical view of Scripture firsthand when I was at SBTS completing my PhD. It was shocking at the time because I assumed all the faculty had a high view of Scripture, but sadly I learned that wasn’t the case.
