Bible Note: Such florid language, and yet what does it say? And is this individual who accused me of "name calling" now referring to me as a "bigot"? :) It is hard to see where you are coming from due to your vague, tongue-in-cheek post. Do you seriously consider Luther a heretic? Are you yourself a disciple of Rome? I wouldn't call rightly discerning the nature of God "extremism." You may prefer ignorance, but God did not reveal Himself in his word so that we may remain blissfully unaware of what He is like. And, for the record, my righteousness is completely found in Christ (Galatians 2:20, Philippians 3:8-9, Titus 3:5), which is indeed a properly understood Calvinist view, no matter how "extreme" that may seem. And I am wide awake! (1 Peter 1:13) --Joe! |
