I thank Bro Baxter for being who he is and where he is and he is a man with such a wonderful spirit. I agree totally Jam!
I still would be a non church attending, immoral living, "once saved always saved" baptist if not for Bro. Baxter's emphasis on the need to be truly born again.

Also, I have never heard him claim to be a prophet or make a prophecy, also bro. price said he was wrong on Y2k, but in fact he sid Y2K would be a dud.

Without a doubt, his worst fault is somewhat pinning himself to a certain "close" time period, always saying, I beleive the next 7 years could start this year." I think if he just taught the the prophecies without the predictions he would be much more highly regaurded. However, I do think when he says "i believe...", he is being honest, since there is always a possibility of it actually happening this year or not, even if it is not likely to happen in said year.

I am not "defending" his take on prophecy, but I am defending his character.

Also, about 2 years ago, I was able to go and eat with him and a couple of folks from our church. I was watching (him) and listening (to him) to see if he would seem to act differently now that he was not on the radio, or in church. He was very humble, and very kind. A true christian.

I think everyone is well within their rights to debate his understanding of bible prophecy as accurate or fanciful, but i think we are overstepping our lines to call him a false prophet, for he has never claimed to be a true prophet.
