    I desire peace. Yes I desire peace.... For the moment we will need to agree to disagree. I want to show the IFB that Reformed are more gracious and kind and not the divisive ones which belong to IFB. Reformed can be very kind and gracious.

    After a chat I had with a former Reformed Baptist pastor of mine he says I should not make it a big issue. I listen to Charles Stanley, David Jeremiah, and Erwin Lutzer whom are not Reformed, so no need to be divisive with Arminian. These IFB are not KJVO nor do they believe one can lose salvation, so they are not automatic red flags.

    I will become a member of the church as long as the pastor agrees to respect my Reformed theology in which he did.

    Perhaps that is because it is everywhere in the bible?


    Those evil calvinist pastors...wanting to proclaim the greatness of God!!! How did you and your wife survive:eek:

    Oh no...not the great commission ....they wanted you to actual evangelize sinners....how terrible it must have been:thumbs:

    how awful...the pastor read other men who believed the bible also...oh the humanity....I guess he did not offer puppet shows, or clowns, or a rock band for entertainment....:wavey:

    A plurality of elders...what an out rage!!!!

    It's not explicitly mentioned everywhere in the Bible but it is certainly mentioned frequently and is easily detected. But how many sermons can you listen to that used the same four or five texts, over and over and over again. Isaiah 46:9-11, Isaiah 45:7, 1 Chronicles 29, etc.

    Should there be seven or eight sermons a year on Isaiah 46:9-11? I think I got the message the first three or four times I heard the message in 2006.


    No, the horror came in finally finding out with certainty that I was in a Calvinist church.


    But all were Calvinists.


    Actually, they did. Another reason to leave that dead church.


    Why change the church government charter? The church was established in 1958. Now here is a new pastor and suddenly it needs to change?

    Great. Not relevant to my experience at this church and the constant, persistent, repetitious sermons on sovereignty.
