I have been on the PB for about 6 months. I have read some excellent threads. In your opinion, list some of the best educational ones, of all time(s) so all of us short timers can catch up

In the past year, I have seen several threads that brought out deep passion and debate, and good insights.

You may want to use the search function (upper right), but here have been a few of the topics that I learned much from:

Keeping the sabbath
Pruned Sabbath Do's and Don'ts
Sabbath observation poll
Observing 'holydays' such as Christmas, Easter
http://www.puritanboard.com/f103/not...ristmas-41057/ (a near "thread riot" broke out on this one)
Celebration of Easter and Christmas? (another near riot)
Women deacons
A Biblical Argument for Men Only as Deacons
Validity of Roman baptisms
Validity of Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Baptisms
Exclusive psalmody
Is there Scriptural Warrant for Composing Uninspired song for use in public worship (not having been familiar with this a year ago, this has been the most contentious issue I've seen debated on threads here. still not sure why)
(instruments in worship?) Calvin on Instruments in worship at Heidelblog

Another: Why did Bahnsen shave his beard?

Here is some classic Winzer: AV Theology Compared to Modern Versions

I think these two posts are very instrumental to understanding the error of the FV:

Conditional Election - Where does FV differ from Historical Reformed Usage?

Wilkins' Presbytery exam examined by Rick Phillips

**Rich Koster** · 07-17-2009 08:25 PM

There is some really good stuff listed here. Scott put something in the suggestion box that refined my thought process a little further.

**Curt** · 07-17-2009 09:23 PM

I'll tell you what. There s very little here that has not been edifying. That does not nean that I agree with everything, but I still apprecatiate it all.

Here is another one: John MacArthur - God is passive with the reprobate

Another: Why I am now a Baptist

The thread shows the importance of correct presuppositions needed in interpreting Scripture.

**Sven** · 07-19-2009 11:05 PM

I noticed that no one has listed anything from the Politics and Government thread yet.
