"Is that "Dutch Reformed?"

No. I'm one of those nose-bleed high church Continuing Anglicans. I hold to the teachings of the 39 Articles which make it clear that scripture is the only authority on salvation. My church believes that none are worthy, but some are saved by grace and that works are the fruit of the spirit but insufficient to merit salvation. Whew!

I called myself "slightly reformed" because to my Catholic friends I am pretty much in lock step with Calvin theologically but to some of my Reformed friends I am indulging in the wildest heights of popery liturgically. LOL!

I do think there is no faith without grace but that faith can manifest in its own sweet time. Hence the death bed conversion/battle field part of the question. Gave you more than you expected (or needed) I'll bet.
