Rich - keep in mind that there are two types of Baptists that we are going to encounter on the PB. The first are Baptists who are Calvinists but still mired in the dispensational system. They usually attend free-willy churches and feel like a fish out of water because of their stance on Calvinism. The second group would be Reformed (Particular) Baptists. Usually they are confessional (LBC) and have a more thorough grasp on the doctrines of sovereign grace and covenantalism.
