For me, it was the doctrine of civil magistracy that lead me to Reformed theology in God's providence. After being raised Roman Catholic, becoming a Baha'i, then converting to evangelical Christianity, I came to the conviction that our government was unBiblical. My cousin then taught me about the Scottish Covenanters and their view of civil magistracy. That in turn lead to the whole Reformed system of theology, praise God!
