So is that a “no,” you do NOT trust yourself, and the good and pure testimony of your God-given conscience?

I just told you that I trust my perception of sacrificial love being Christlike in the lives of the Saints. Thus,I consciously believe that all TRUE love is grounded in Christ.

Again, I don't see that reflection of TRUE and sacrificial love in the teachings of calvinism. I consciously reject many of calvin's teachings.

I realize you say you "trust (your) perception of sacrificial love being Christlike in the lives of the Saints."

But that was not the question, even in the slightest. My question, simple and clear and forcefully answered by Paul, was -- "do you trust yourself, and the good and pure testimony of your God-given conscience?"

Now before you demand where Paul makes this claim, please answer the question, or we'll have to assume it's either too difficult or too embarrassing for you to answer.
