As is the case with all voluminous writers, Calvin never says everything relavant to a subject in one place. Indeed, sometimes his best remarks on any given subject are where you least expect them to be. I thank God for searchable documents!Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02908788730958708701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331156725554508589.post-62225219845675466482011-07-19T13:01:20.639-05:002011-07-19T13:01:20.639-05:00Hi.

Your article is quite helpful in terms of sorting thru the baptist issue, so I wanted to thank you for it.<br />I've been trying to send you a comment, but your website seems to be malfunctioning. Let's see if this one gets to you.

I enjoy studying the subject so mcuh because I see in it a principle about the nature of salvation, viz., that everyone enters the kingdom like a baby - empty-handed. The child is a metaphor of the Reformed doctrine of Predestination.<br /><br />Thanks for the encouragement.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02908788730958708701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331156725554508589.post-66414540134902692812011-07-15T12:57:28.955-05:002011-07-15T12:57:28.955-05:00Good stuff.
