You seem mighty lonely over here Alan! Thought I would join in.

You know, I have heard of Calvinism and Armenianism, but I never really studied either of them, no Bible School here, just me, the Spirit and the bible.

I always thought it funny that the Mormons spout Calvinism more than the Christians! The once saved always saved, election and all of that.

I suppose if I took the time to study all of this I would be a lot like you, accepting some, rejecting others, hopefully basing my decisions on what the Word says.

Your last post though is exactly how I think. We have a *** to do, that is to love others and present the Gospel. Leave the results up to God. It is not complicated, it is simple, but alas, it is not always easy.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. I find encouragement in what you say, and I thank you for that.
