Perhaps, but, then profiling is only bad if you are some kind of liberal with your head stuck in the sand.

After all, when looking for muslim terrorists from middle eastern countries that might be trying to kill Americans, we obviously need to make sure we frisk some 90 year old grandma before allowing her to board the plane lest it seem like we are actually looking for muslim terrorists from middle eastern countries.

No, I had you mixed up with a pentecostal. And that is far different than a dipsie, even if almost all pentecostals are also dipsies. But, I am considering opening a thread soon to show a few of the Premill & dipsies that they aren't reading John correctly. I pointed it out on a thread that was closed and never got the chance to go back and explain it. Perhaps you might want a piece of the action.

Reformed Theology is the theology of the Reformation, especially the theology of those Reformers in line with Calvin (in general). This would include Bucer, Knox, Cranmer, etc... Covenant theology is the view of those that followed the above mentioned Reformers.

I can not prove any of that biblically. We can discuss whether or not Reformed/Covenant theology is biblical. Dispensationalist don't think the distinctive of Reformed/Covenant theology or biblical and Reformed Christians believe the distinctives of Dispensationalism are unbiblical.

Those are debatable points. But I don't think Reformed = Covenant theology is debatable.

Based soley on your definition of Reformed which you have yet to substantiate.

Do you assume that I am dispensational? If so you are mistaken.

As most people know here I am Reformed in that I support and believe the doctrines of grace. I also favor Covenant Theology. However, I reject the idea that infant baptism must be a part of this. (Note: I condemn no one for baptising their infant children. I would simply not choose to do so.)

I have no time nor desire to debate this with you. I fully intend to continue to call myself Reformed wether you agree with that definition or not.

I apologize if I seem antagonistic but debates like this over definitions get under my skin. (And it's getting late.... :))

In Christ,
Knight
