I am a member of Presbyterian Church of American (PCA) which holds Westminster Standards.

If anyone objects, I will understand because of my "speaking up" of my beliefs.
Sure Jim, isnt it true that you become more like the ones you hang out with?

Welcome Jim!

Thanks everyone.

Naw... I just speak up. My wife says I am too blunt at times. Why? Growing up deaf in a society (kids) that picks on kids with disabilities made me bold. :sorry: :holy: I tend to speak up. :D

Excellent.....spirited discussion is good for all of us, and here at SR the regular posters are mature enough to keep the discourse civil.

Under our new rules to be a member of SR you must meet the criteria set out in A1:



If you meet this criteria and you wish to be a member of SR then could you please sign up here. May I also request that you point out which of the confessional documents you adhere to.

This list will then be used to determine who can debate in the main forum, vote to change the rules and who can become moderators.

Thank you :thumbsup:
Does this mean SR hasn't been abandoned to the papists? I read some chatter on the the Protestants in Arms mailing list that non-Christians could now post in the Christian-only forums. Is that true?

Oh, in case anyone forgot, as an OPC member, I claim the Westminster Standards.

SR abandoned? Not yet and not ever, I hope. Actually, Jon, it's not the paptists we're super concerned with right now--it's the pagans on this pagan website. Welcome to the membership of our mighty fortress. :)

I do depending on the context is being used since other dieties are a joke.

I will like to say that I am concerned how this forums worry for Erwins changes seems to push many into legalism. Especially when I was told I shouldn't go to seminary because I hold an old earth position.
That's not legalism--that's orthodoxy. The creeds of the historic Reformed and Presbyterian church hold to a Young Earth Creation. I imagine that is why you were dissuaded from seminary (I cannot say for sure, as I am not privy to the details).

Also, other deities are not a joke to the Lord--they are an offense. While it might be amusing to our fallen nature to see widespread idolatry around us whilst we know the trust, rest assured that God finds no humor in it. Thus, neither should we.

I hate to bump this back up to the top of the thread pile, but I believe we have an issue that needs addressing.

I have been in the Soterology room debating with a member who is carrying a Calvinist icon, and yet makes this statement:

I am not a Calvinist

Is this allowed? Do we want this member allowed here?

Just asking?

If this is no problem, (rule violation) are we going to allow this member to be part of the SR room?

?????????????

God Bless

Till all are one.

I'm not sure we can do anything about anyone denying Calvinism but carrying a Calvinist icon 'out there'. I would think that to have full posting 'in here', the person would have to support one of the approved confessions or articles of faith...regardless of what their icon reads.

Sorry but the historic Reformed and Prebyterian positions are not infalliable and I am apalled by your statment further showing my point. Your legalism will not push me from the Lords will for my life to further spread his kingdom.

Next thing I know you will claim to be a prophet for knowing how God thinks about other peoples jokes. No wonder so many are turned away from the reformed faith because of bickering on such trivial issues.

I think Rush is one of the funniest humans alive. We all need more laughter in our lives, IMHO.

If you're Arminian then I'm probably semi-pelagian;)

Seriously - it's statements like that that keep me from both sotierology and GT.

I read the report on him from the Soterology room and they are of the opinion that he is Hyper-Calvinistic. I don't see it.

Oh well.

Thanks brother.

God Bless

Till all are one.

hyper calvinist ?

he is stratospheric hyper calvinist !


he gives hypers a bad name :p ^_^

"to you sir, and to all of you:

6Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

I have not seen nothing on this board but blasphemies, all of you as far as i can tell worship satan, the beast. If any of you repent , by the grace of God, then get at me at beloved_57@yahoo.com...I am out of this hell hole.. "

That's common of hyper-Calvinists: an utter lack of grace in their speech.

Funny thing. This morning I was reading an obit and included in it was 'He was the world's greatest Rush fan'. I thought it was rather a strange place to mention it!

I wonder if anyone sent that to Rush. He'd probably mention that on the air.
