JD, all I saw was someone with concerns about what you posted. It wasn't ugly. In fact, I too have some of the same concerns. That doesn't mean that I don't like you or Reformed folks. While I lean in thier direction I just don't fully agree with their conclusions or interpretation. Folks like me have been called "self-salvationists," told that "we don't understand (ie. you are ignorant), that we are denying what is clearly written in the Bible, had our salvation questioned, called Armenian when we clearly are not, etc. Yet, I haven't left to go to a place where everyone agrees with me. How would that help me to grow, to learn, to be challenged?
you never heard the expression, " you go to your church & I will go to mine? Then why do you think it is someone would say that?
