Into New Hersey's Cookies and Creme! (never mind my silliness)

Just wondering if there were anymore out there.

I saw the Liberated Lutheran thread and thought we needed one too.

Maybe we can get some Psalms going or give some Biblical arguments against early heresies (or modern ones). You know all those wonderful things that we Calvinists are best at. (my silliness again)

Anyway, looking forward to meeting you. :wave:

heh... it seemed like the Lutherans were taking over last week... :)

Anyways, I am a reformed baptist, though I attend presby churches from time to time as I have many friends who go there (my favorite pastor to listen to is Tim Keller, a PCA guy from back east).

Yo :wave: I'm glad to see Puriteen started a new music thread, too, as the last one got shut down.



I dunno. Ive noticed that seems to be a very difficult thing to do on this forum.
Those involved usually end up fighting with one another. I would love to see these discussions return, though.

Pick a subject and feel free. I would only ask that you carefully read the rules link at the bottom of this page as well as any sticky threads concerning any ammended rules.

Calvinists are a mystery to me.

Calvin claimed that since salvation is by God's grace, and God is all-powerful, God knows who will and who will not be saved.

So I deduce that people subscribing to such beliefs may dedicate their lives to Calvinist Christianity, and never know whether or not they are predestined.

I too am a 1689er (don't let the Presbies find out).

My favorite preacher is Mr. Paul Washer of Heart Cry Missions. Definately the Johnathan Edwards of our day.

You can hear his sermons at http://www.heartcrymissionary.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=1

They're wonderful.

I'm a good Presbyterian :)

Ron, I read the thread you pointed to. I don't mind honest questions, but it really winds me up when people start going on in such a vindictive manner- they know you won't respond in kind, and if you do, they've got one over on you.

Ah well, I suppose it's just one of life's little trials :sigh:

I think the Assembly of 1689 put it this way

"we have no itch to clog religion with new words".

See, it sounds soooo much better that way. :holy:


If it helps most of my fellow Southern Baptists enjoy to call people like me "Deep-Water Presbyterians", a name which I have grown fond of.

Ecclesia Reformata et Sempre Reformanda! (I meant that towards the Reformation in the SBC)

I feel sorry for the Calvinists on this board, I think the Lutherans are the only ones here who don't feel it's their life's purpose to convert you from "the dark side" :D
heh... all I could think of when I read this was the star wars theme song starting up in the background as we walk in room bearing our dog eared edition of the Institutes... ready to torture the rebellious arminians with our sovereignty proof-texts until they give up and join us as well...

"we find your lack of faith... disturbing..." (darth vader) ;)

hmm.. nice, I'll have to listen to a few. I love Edwards though. His work on religious experience is definitely the best out there.
