Bible Answer: Hi, Tamara... Reformed and evangelistic are not mutually exclusive! Oh my, no! These terms are simply used in theology to discuss the explicit commands of God to man. They tend to be mentioned in more educated circles, which is why you generally don't hear them from contemporary evangelical pulpits. One of the best treatments of these mandates that I have heard was by Dr. Gerard Van Groningen. I'll send you a link to his lectures if you'd like. In Him, Doc |
