Please, didn't we go through all this back in the days of Luther and Calvin??? I'm a firm believer in the Reformed faith, but see no reason to re-fight the Thirty Years War or bash my Catholic friends.

Everybody should have a hobby. Some spin, some collect stamps, some engage in religious warfare. Whatever floats the old boat, y'know ....

No one is "bashing" anyone on this thread. We're all here to learn.

Do you think the counter-Reformation ended?

""The Reformation is dying daily in our day when the Ecumenical Movement, and other forces like unto it, wish to soften the antithesis with Rome, today. I want to assure you that it's not my pugnacious debating nature that makes me say we must exalt that antithesis and guard it. It's my love for the Lord Jesus Christ and the purity of His word.

"Rome has not essentially changed. Rome declared that what it said at the time of the Reformation was infallible and could not change. Declared it to be irreformible truth. Rome has not changed and precious truths of God's word are still worth upholding even at the cost of unity even at the cost of being considered "troublemakers" in the religious world. We need to guard the antithesis against the destructive error of Rome."

Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen -- From a tape, THE REFORMATION, October 28, 1990.
