    Welcome, I don't know anyone from Las Vegas right off, but there is certainly a chance. :)

    Hello from HiddenManna

    You're actually not the first Charismatic Calvinist that I've heard of. Wayne Grudem describes himself that way as well. I'd perhaps fall somewhere along that same spectrum. I'm not a hardcore Reformed (or Calvinist) guy by any stretch, but I have what you could call a Particular Baptist...

    Boring like this forever?!

    Inmate, I think a good bit of what you are suffering from comes from the topic discussed in this podcast: http://reformedforum.org/podcasts/ctc282/ I really really recommend that you listen to it. Philippians 2:1-2 NIV Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if...

    Boring like this forever?!

    Why must it involve church to not be sinful? We don't have to have a Bible in hand when we perform every activity of our lives.

    Who is Your Pope?

    By the way, I did want to address a half-truth about the book of James. Luther was not the first to question it. Many notable Catholics did the same. Link: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08275b.htm This is a topic in which I disagree with Luther. However, the great freedom in Protestantism is...

    Let's keep this on topic, please. We're getting close to derailing this one too. Thanks!

    Was Mary sinless?

    This topic is closed. We've run the gamut of the arguments.

    Catholics vs. Protestant Threads

    We've made a very important decision on our part, we believe, to include both Catholics and Eastern Orthodox here in the community as brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. (And rightfully so!) Unfortunately, I am seeing a trend where some cannot handle this -- and this is an issue I see on both...

    Some Good Ole Fashioned Preaching

    ^ Ditto. Wesleyan Arminianism differs ever-so-slightly from Classical Arminianism (Jacobus Arminius & the Remonstrants). Wesley believed that one could fall away and then come back, though I don't believe it was to the extent of some strains of modern Baptist thought that one can fall away one...

    The Godhead

    Actually be very careful where you tread with your terms. Using the historical creeds of Christianity (accepted by Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox), it is one God, three persons (the Athanasian Creed states this outright). The Godhead is representative of the one God aspect of our...

    Defending Christian Rap/Hip Hop

    Many of the Christian rap songs out there have more good theology in them than many contemporary worship songs and even some hymns, so it can surely be redeemed. I'm not really certain how one can pick a musical genre out of the Bible, to be honest, so I am less concerned with how the message is...

    Born 86, Christian 03, Mother 07, 09, 12, Separated 12

    Qualify hippie. ;) Judging by your use of comedic dates, you'll fit right in. Welcome to Christianity Board! What's changed for you since you became a Christian roughly ten years ago? Completely open-ended question. :)

    United Methodist Reporter Closing Doors

    Agreed. Most forms of print are dealing with this regardless of whether they are secular or not. Reading is shifting to the internets ( :) ) whether we like it or not because it's much less overhead. I think it may be more of a market-size issue, though.
