'ecclesiastical athiests'

That is a term, that through the power of the Holy Spirit, will send a shutter down the spine of the elect.

I really like Bunker and think he's excellent. On this one subject, Regeneration, I think he teeters on the edge of a hole sometimes dug by Baptists which tends to describe regeneration as an "event."

I've come to understand our salvation more in terms of God simply revealing His truth to us and permitting us to understand it. That's regeneration, which can come quickly or take years to solidify into our hearts and brains. Either way, it's the supernatural process whereby God personally reveals Himself and Christ's redemption of us through Scripture and the leading of the Holy Spirit. And on this I know Bunker agrees.

I hope you post more threads from Bunker, Alpha. I admire his strength and clarity.

And I strongly encourage all Reformers to read Bunker's terrific book, "Swarms of Locusts."
