PJ,



Over and over you chide folks for their "Calvinism" or their "Reformation Theology"



So P.J - I am asking you, for the benefit of everyone on the forums, please explain to us what you mean when you say "Reformed Theology" Please be as detailed as you can. It will help everyone gain a better understanding.



What Is Reformed Theology? Is there such thing as a "monolithic" reformed theology? If there is, how does that "Reformed Theology" differ from what the Bible teaches? On what key doctrines, do you believe that reformed theology errs?



Let's look at an example. The Bible teaches that God is Sovereign. As far as I know, all the major theologians from the reformation believed this to be true.



P.J., Do you believe that God is Sovereign? If so, does that mean that you believe in "reformed theology" ? If not, why not?

Scripture must be known, it is not known by searching it is known by obeying scripture.



There is no dilemma here go ahead with your surprise, The answer is in the word.



We do not put our meaning to scripture. we believe scripture with the heart.

Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and SEARCHED the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

The Jews obeyed Scripture without searching it out too, bro.



That's how the Lord fulfilled His will through them. And look what it got them. They rejected the Lord Jesus when He came to a people who didn't search the Scriptures as they should have.



Just sayin'.

That is your viewpoint Donna.



Agapeton you just violated the love again you talk about.



The Absolute truth you can not answer the word so you create diversions with your strife.





It is your choice to believe
