This is what Calvinism does for you, friend. It's joyless misery paralyzes you and deprives you of the ability to embrace and appreciate God's messengers whom he sends to assist us in our need.

Like the co-reedemer, Mary? Or the minister who is "another Christ?"

No, thanks. I'll stick with Jesus Christ alone and the Gospel message in Scripture.

But you are half-right. A deeper understanding of Biblical Christianity, which can be called Calvinism, does prevent me from recognizing anyone as a mediator between God and men but Christ Jesus.

For that, I am eternally grateful...and most joyful.

From your posts, it's not at all obvioius.
