A good reminder from R.C.

Let us, when we talk of God, talk of this"”that He is utterly unimpressed with our scholarship, and that He invented acuity. Let us remember this"”He commands us to love Him, and He loves us. Now that is worth talking about.

I know he's unimpressed with my "scholarship" (Heavy emphasis on the quotations)

Not that good theology isn't important , but the more I am exposed to honest study of God, the more I appreciate exactly what R.C. mentioned.

I love the word "utterly". At times Calvinists have to correct the misguided by explaining that "total" depravity is not "utter" depravity. Here, R.C. found the perfect usage of the word.
