Me, too. However, many noncalvinists don't like it when calvinists use that term to describe what they believe.
Some think it's dishonest—a way to trick people and not let them know we're really calvinists .
:)
And others complain that it's not right for calvinists to take over that term, because noncalvinists believe in grace, too.

:laugh: :laugh: Your exactly right, and this has happened to me! Either I am accused of man-worship, or of "creeping in unaware" :BangHead:
All I can do is sit back and laugh.

You can at least edit your taking the name of the Lord in vain!

I, too, believe in the doctrines of grace...maybe not in the same terms, but the Gospel is the doctrine of grace!

It was not in vain; it was a genuine plea.
