I agree with you, as I am a Calvinistic Dispy!
O boy !
I haven't studied much into calvinism, I know that they have the eternal security doctrine though, which I agree totally with. If the calvinist doctrine teaches the Proverbs 20:24 and Eph. 1:4-5 predestination doctrine, I embrace at least those sections of calvinism.
Have you started reading "dispensaionalism" yet?
If I am not mistaken, Chafer gets into some calvinistic doctrine in that book (Pr. 20:24 doctrine I mean).
