I don't know. I have the Spirit of the Reformation Study Bible that I read close to every morning. I am going through all the Catechisms, and so far I haven't found one that seems wrong, so I guess maybe I am. ;)
Ditto! :clap:

In a word, yes. But I usually clarify that despite holding to the five points, I disagree with Calvin on other important issues, such as church government and the ordinances. Calvinism is just a convenient nickname for what I believe the Bible teaches about God's role in our salvation.

Yes, I use it the same way too.

Nope.

Instead of "TULIP" I'm more "TUP" - but I'm starting to lose the "T" (I do hold the depravity of man, but the "total" I disagree with).
According to the Bible we are all depraved :scratch:
