    Hello all. Happy to be here. I figured I'd share a provocative heading so people will open it :)

    I love to cordially discuss soteriology. I'm a Baptist and reformed. Looking forward to interacting a bit.

    Hope everyone is well!

    Hey! I am just a small fish in a big pond. I am new to all this theology stuff. I usually just post funny cat videos.

    Welcome. There are lots of Calvinists here. I am not one of them. Nor am I an Arminian.

    You'll find plenty to discuss. Lots of allies and lots of opposition if that's your bag to debate.

    Great. I do like debating the points. Are you one of the new provisionists? open theist?

    Open theist - definitely not. The omniscience of God is denied
    New provisionist - don't know what that is.

    Provisionalism is usually called Traditionalists. It is basically Arminianism with a twist (people are condemned for not believing in Christ rather than remaining in sin and they affirm OSAS).

    I am also neither (I am not a Calvinist or Arminian, and Provisionalism is not quite there for me either).

    Regeneration precedes faith? Or faith preceds regeneration?

    @The_5_Solas , all humor aside, there are plenty of Calvinists on this board. Most of us play nice with others, just like most of those on the free will side. There are always "those few" who have theological rabies and froth at the mouth. You learn to either tune them out or throw them a bone once in a while just for the sake of amusement.
