If I recall he said somewhere that he sells insurance and has a Master of Arts in Theological Studies from Liberty University Online. I may be mistaking but it seems I read that somewhere (don't take my word or memory for it....I could be thinking of someone else).

How do you know he is a pastor? Do you belueve he was wrong for slandering me as an ordained and licensed preacher or does this just apply to pastors?

I am starting to wonder if you are lying by omission (taking an unearned role). Do you pastor a congregation?

For some reason I do not think @Preacher4Truth in the position to question anyones behavior. If you need to apologize then do so for using baloney sandwiches in a bad way.

@David Taylor , do you pastor a congregation? If so, is it a Reformed congregation (Reformed Baptist)?

And Jesus reply. Are you really this illiterate?

If you mean Calvinism and Buddhism are the gospel insofar as it aligns with Scripture you would still be wrong. Scripture itself (as a whole) is not the gospel message. The gospel is not that complex. Calvinism (even if correct) is simply not the gospel. Try again. And as you try to wring some...

@David Taylor , are you the pastor of a congregation? If so, congrats on your ordination and selection. It is a great responsibility. If not, you may want to clarify (I'd hate for you to accept a false representation, even if by oversight).

I do not hate Calvinism. I hate that some hold Calvinism as their gospel when it is not even in the Bible (it is not a different translation of a text, it is not in the text at all). Here is what I do to help me: Bible Study Methods

I was Infantry with a Phd (post hole digger....I was a combat engineer).

I did. You missed it. I could give you another fish. I could try to teach you to fish. But reason dictates it is not a good idea to lead a blind man towards a large body of water. :D

We have to be able, as best we can, to identify and separate our presuppositions. This is where it is important (and why I have insisted on) sticking with what is written. This way we can compare what we believe with what is actually written in Scripture and see the differences. This does not...

LOL....if we're waiting for unbiased opinions we're going to be waiting a long time. We are all biased. ;) My point is I am not lying when I state his view is not within Reformed Theology and he is not lying when he says it is. Point of fact is that at the Reformation his view would not be...

He is not a pastor. If I recall correctly, he sells insurance. Regardless, Jim Jones was a pastor so it really does not matter.

I disagree. But I suppose it depends on where we get our definitions. David does not hold Reformed Theology as defined by R.C. Sproul (he's my "cheat sheet" for Reformed definitions). Either way, it is not either of us bearing false witness (although I would be interested in where you get...

Somehow I thought you would not own up.We both know Scripture does not state that God punished Jesus instead of punishing us. My statement is that you believe Scripture does not state (in the text) that Jesus is God. You believe Scripture teaches both, but states neither. And you are wrong...

Sorry.....I just saw @David Taylor 's post. I read your question to be about Calvin, not Calvinists. All Reformed theology affirms infant baptism. All traditional Calvinists (historical Calvinists) practice infant baptism. But there are also Baptists who have taken on some of Reformed Theology...

David, please re-read my post. Then you can apologize if you find it in your character. I chose the words very carefully (to be precise).

No. It's not common ground. It's a coincidence :D . (Yes, I'm being cantankerous).

Yes. That is one of the major distinctives (and why Anabaptist can be Baptist but not the other way around). Not only do you have pacifism but they believed it was sinful for a Christian to hold public office. They held distinct views along with what is the "baptist distinctive". I am leaning...
