Welcome to mrlevine

A hearty welcome to one of my best friends in the world, and a true fellow laborer in the faith.

I would ask all here at PB to extend a welcome to Mark, who is as "vanilla" Westminster as me, and a whole lot smarter!

My own new shorthand. From my website:

Quote:
The Vanilla Westminsterian - A place for the theological and teaching resources of Fred Greco. Why "Vanilla Westminsterian?" It's actually quite simple: as a Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and a student at Reformed Theological Seminary, I subscribe to the Westminster Confession as the most faithful expressions of what the Bible teaches. Unlike many in our day, I have no desire to be innovative or controversial. As I tell my friends, "if you want to know what I think about a theological issue, take a look at what the Confession says." Plain is good. I like plain.

Welcome. I guess I could fit as a Vanilla Westminsterian too, though when it comes to Ice Cream I prefer lots of innovation involving lots of chocolate
