Jeff, I've said this on more than a few threads. Use caution on who you label an Arminian. For example, not every non-Calvinistic Baptist is a classical/historical Arminian. They may have Arminian tendencies. Some of them are even Calvinistic, although they would never admit it. Thank God for the inconsistency! We paint with such a wide brush at times that we push people into corners that aren't deserved.
sorry, I should of qualified the term, But i refer to arminian in the fully fledged 5 pointer.

other than the COC, that theology is the only one i know of that really leads to what KMK said "any group that causes etc.." that within the protestant realm.
Jeff, no problem. I insist on accuracy when labeling someone an Arminian for reasons I've already given. I understand completely where you're coming from though.

Curl away, my son!
