[MarkBsnr]

but I am now beginning to understand that Protestants, or at least Calvinists, really don’t believe the beatitudes or being charitable applies to them.

If you read the Westminster Confession of Faith, it confirms it. Those who are unfortunate are that way because they are accursed of God, according to the Calvinist. The exalted position that a Calvinist finds himself in is because God smiles upon him and has rewarded him. That is their theology.

Maybe you realized all this previously, but I did not, and I admit that I am stunned to find this out. Thank God I have not been sucked down the drainhole of Calvinism.

The lord of this world created, supported, and sustains to this day the un Christian beliefs of the Reformed.

How unfortunate.
