As I explained off the thread to GW,I don't know anything about Finneys Theology... In fact, this is entirely true. As I recall the exchange some months back, I called you a Finneyite Nazarene and did my best to make it sound bad. However, if one looks at the web sites with URLs like www.I-hate-Calvin.com, you'll notice that there is a lot of Finney material on such sites and relatively little material by Wesley. Finney is the champion of the militant Wesleyans. And I think that's probably a little hard for you and many other Wesleyans to even imagine. For many American Calvinists, e.g. Baptists, Finney was the greater problem, especially when you see how his influence spread out through other denominations.

This was a good sermon...now you may not agree with it,but I promise not to call you a heretic *grin* We're never going to make a good Calvinist out of you with an attitude like that! ; )

LOL..I am so proud of my ignorance GW..We have a Christian school in our area named for Finney.....thats it..I have no clue as to his theological stand...I have a reference site I use that has the works of several different preachers.. Some of his is on there.

I was looking for something that wasnt Wesley...so I read this and thought it could generate discussion if a troublemaker like you really READ it :>))

Seems like the kind of thing each person could bring his own theology to and find something to think about..

I have now defended my selection as well as I can..and fully expect to be told I am damned for my choice ..
