PS: Have you admired/enjoyed looking at parlor portfolios? They have a lot of artwork to see, with no obligation.

Ditto to my post, above.

I try, Sir, to be an encourager and a challenger from Scripture. I try not to be an arguer; respectfully I decline to argue at length with you, Sir.

I would probably call myself some sort of Calvinist; and I don't favour hyper-Calvinism. The reference was about some of the variety of ways in which I have heard the term Calvinist used over more than 30 years. A dislike has also taken hold of me over many years about engaging in endless...

I agree with what you say about hyper Calvinists.

In Acts 13, the context makes clear a reference to the Resurrection in 'this day have I begotten Thee'.

Psalm 2 is indeed remarkable - especially the reference to the Son.
