sh, June 18, 2008 at 11:45 AM: i can identify with the journey. and i remember having the same emotional response....when i figured out that God isn't "Sam- centered"
Anonymous, June 19, 2008 at 11:25 AM: I like his patience. Calvin must of been a very patient man, because he married an anabapist.
Wm Mallory, June 20, 2008 at 10:23 PM: I have been without internet... Amen to your thoughts Sam.... My emotional response was the same.

Ken, I agree... Now Luther on the other hand...Would not have been able to be married to an Anabaptist. lol
Anonymous, June 21, 2008 at 12:42 PM: Luther did the unthinkable...married a runaway nun if I'm not mistaken...lol. When I worked in Alma at store, I used to have the young nuns come and talk to me.....we'd talk about CS Lewis. I could never tell if they were pretty or not, because only their eyes and mouth were unveiled...lol

"Systematic Theology is remarkable for its extraordinary juxtapositions. It is penetrating but not confusing; readable and clear but not superficial; biblically grounded, even biblically saturated, but not textually careless or glib; devout and reverent but not uncritical or vaive; practical but not trendy or sentimental; comprehensive but not majoring on minors; a book for the church but not parochial or sectarian. I expect to trun to it for decades." ---John Piper, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis

"And what is the heresy of Arminianism but the addition of something to the work of the Redeemer?"

---Charles H. Spurgeon

"The greatest need in the evangelical community today is to learn the Gospel of Jesus Christ, because in simply surveying the sermons and the witnessing techniques and the methodology of Church growth and everything else that I see, I can only come to one conclusion: we know not the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

---Paul Washer

"When the heart indeed is cast into the mold of doctrine that the mind embraceth - when the evidence is necessity of the truth abides in us, - when not the sense of the words is only in our heads, but the sense of the thing abides in our hearts - when we have communion with God in the doctrine we contend for - then shall we be garrisoned by the Grace of God against all of the assaults of men."

---John Owen
