Finally a member

I have paroused the PB for a couple of years now...and have finally taken the plunge to engage. I am a Reformed layman, in the PCA in FW TX. Look forward to interaction and banter!

Welcome! Banter here is bountiful and free. Unfortunately it often comes in the form of blather (dictionary definition of "blather" - see "Bawb").

Welcome Gage. I grew up in Edgecliff, TX from 1980-1986 and attended Nolan. I'll be passing through in August.

Is Grace Community that massive Church near Hulen?

This may explain the old adage about Baptists being Methodists with shoes, and Presbyterians being Baptists who can read. To round out the adage, Lutherans might qualify as Presbyterians who drink to excess, and Episcopalians as Lutherans who know when to say when. - D.G. Hart

There once was a man who would rather,
engage in banter, than blather.
So he sought the PB,
where he was happy to see,
that Baptists and Presbys still gather.

(How's that, Dennis?)

Welcome Gage, I am so glad you have joined.

Don't know if Josh could have pulled that off yesterday.

When heresy rises in an evangelical body, it is never frank and open. It always begins by skulking, and assuming a disguise. Its advocates, when together, boast of great improvements, and congratulate one another on having gone greatly beyond the ‘old dead orthodoxy,’ and on having left behind many of its antiquated errors: but when taxed with deviations from the received faith, they complain of the unreasonableness of their accusers, as they ‘differ from it only in words.’ This has been the standing course of errorists ever since the apostolic age. Samuel Miller, Introductory essay, The Articles of the Synod of Dort (1841).
