Ha, thanks for the distinctions.


I think I am finding out why I have clashed with some here. It seems tobe this "Truly" or "Tightly' Reformed versus this "Barely" or "Broadly" Reformed distinction, especially on issues of ecclesiology. Whereas one side tries for precision, this appears to be rigidity. Whereas the other side tries to leave open some things that are questionable (where the Scripture evidence is scant) the other side thinks this is loosey-gooseyness with the Bible.


So, I am just discovering this distinction in the reformed camp and it seems to be at the root of many clashes.
