Any term can be 'badly misunderstood' and 'efficacious grace' is no different. The underlying philosophy is what matters IMO. So, this 'efficacious grace', is it available to all men?

Can one differ with Calvin on some points of his soteriology and remain a Calvinist or Dortonian?

James Randi Faith Healers is an introductory crash course on Christian magic. Of course he does not believe in ANY supernatural, and as a magician he is always trying to figure it out. Back to the OP, this sounds like a prank. The only way to confirm it is to subject him to a test outside his...

Hymns Rock of Ages, especially the last verse When I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyelids close in death, As I soar to worlds unknown, See thee on thy judgement throne, Rock of Ages cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee. This is one verse I desire to sing just before I breath my...

Interesting topic, I do listen to secular music a lot, reggae, Soul,hip hop and very rarely rock.To me secular music is as spiritual as watching a soccer match or a gardening hobby. I don't believe every single moment of our lives under the sun should be spent 'in the Spirit' it is impractical...

No I'm not, did you change your 'handle' on 7/28/2009?

I'm not going to reveal my email address but the BB Admin have it. I use my two names separated by a dot. I had interchanged them so the confirmation email never got to me. But this was duly corrected.

Hi all, Thank you BB Admin for this forum. I started on a wrong note by submitting the wrong email but the admins were kind enough correct it after I sent them a message. I was afraid of opening a fresh handle lest it be flagged. Thank you once again. I have a burning question which I'm not...
