I don't want to mug any Presbyterians. (Well, okay, maybe one or two, but not in general.)

I will always be grateful for Calvin because of his wonderfully fierce (sense of humor) and devotion to the Sovereignty of God.I know the average Calvinist will shake his head and say, "Wha'?" but it was, in a way, Calvin that brought me to Rome.

He does such a fine job of articulating and demonstrating how it is God, and God alone, who saves.

And it was contemplating the uselessness of me in the face of the Love of God that predominated in my thinking for a long time. And still does.

So we disagree about a few things. I've been wrong about stuff, and am I going to hate Calvin because I think He's wrong about stuff?

May God amend what can be amended and redeem what cannot, and may we all praise His redeeming power and love.

Amen, Mad Dawg. Soli Deo Gloria! And thank you.

I've read your posts on other threads. While I disagree with you on many points including the efficacy of your tagline, this post is simply outstanding.

May God amend what can be amended and redeem what cannot, and may we all praise His redeeming power and love.

Indeed!
