He warned against the thinking of not voting in the presidential election because of problems perceived in the three major presidential contenders.
"There is no perfect candidate; you must vote - and particularly this fall," Page urged. "Whoever the next president is going to be is most likely going to appoint at least two Supreme Court justices."
In addition to politics, Wildmon also asked Page if he felt society has changed the definition of God from the biblical definition that "God is love" (I John 4:8) to "love is God".
The SBC president agreed with Wildmon that society has increasingly reduced God to an emotion or feeling instead of as a reality - a trend that he called "dangerous" and "inaccurate".
"[I]t is also an attempt to make everything palatable, everything acceptable and just say we got to be loving towards everyone. So I see that as part of an overall strategy that says we can't be judgmental about anything," Page noted.
The love of God can be compared to the love of a father who, because he loves his child, will discipline the child, Page pointed out.
"God's love is manifested in many ways," Page explained. "Our world may define it as they want to define it as tolerance, accept everything, love everybody regardless - and we should love everybody regardless - but it doesn't mean we can't say 'thus saith the Lord'," he argued.
The SBC president was at the AFA headquarters in Mississippi on March 18 for the interview. Other topics he spoke about were the sanctity of life, traditional marriage, and homeschooling.
