    Saved in a Calvinistic Baptist Church

    I have read about all of John Bunyan's many works.I believe in Grace Abounding he said, "And some men call me Ana-Baptist." In which, I would consider him of Philadelphian stock. Especially as he would spend time in prison for going against the state church.

    Saved in a Calvinistic Baptist Church

    I have a friend in India (who I have also financially supported) who emailed me this... I would not consider these folks Laodicean or Sardisean either one, more Philadelphian than anything.

    You can preach a message out of the word of God, bring out a mystery without taking away from scripture. The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which...

    Saved in a Calvinistic Baptist Church

    Baptist church I grew up in were all decent. The old WW2 generation of Pentecostal Holiness church were all revived… And then my generation came along, in which the thing to do was to focus in on materialism. It is hard these days to find folks who are passionate about the things of Christ. So...

    Saved in a Calvinistic Baptist Church

    I believe the original Protestant church was Sardisean. The red Sardis stone was also a stone in Aaron’s breastplate… I was born again in what I was called a Calvinistic Sardisean Baptist church and grew up in all the training activity. I believe the training was good and in many cases I would...

    Apparently God the Father has a book of life as well… 31 And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. 32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written...
