Were Calvin and Luther 'saved'?

IMHO, I think you align much closer to Orthodoxy in your atonement position

Yes, I think so too, and to early Quakerism. I could never be Orthodox for other reasons. I could maybe be a Quaker, in some parts of the country, but not a liberal Quaker. That's if there was no acceptable Baptist church around. I'm conservative, but not fundamentalist, and not liberal. I'm not a typical Baptist, if there even is such, but I do hold to the Baptist distinctives. On the Calvinist-Arminian spectrum, I'd definitely be on the Armininian side. And yet I don't consider myself Arminian either

There are thinhs I like about the Orthodox view (theosis), and I think we are moving "from glory to glory". I am not sure about their emphasis. There were too many pagan influences in the formation of the Catholic Church (a natural result of its formation).

In the West, John Wesley was influenced by Orthodoxy, and I am attracted to some aspects of Wesleyan theology. I much prefer the EOC to the RCC but could never belong to either. I was raised Baptist, drifted away, but came back.

I am more attracted to aspects of Anabaptist theology (I disagree with the extent of where they took some principles). But I also prefer EOC to RCC (would never consider either, EOC just seems not to have drifted as far).

Oh, yes, I like a lot of Anabaptist theology. Although I don't adhere to pacifism the way they teach it.
