Thanks for clarifying that, brother. I always thought you looked really old for your age. Now we know the truth.

Saint Criswell? It does not have a ring to it like St. Paul or St. John. What about St. Ivan?

Now THAT is funny!! Just ask my wife.

Wait a minute! Are you folks saying that John Piper didn't write Romans?

Well some of us are saying that. Daniel is convinced that Piper wrote it, but he offers no internal or external evidence for his claim. Poor diluted boy.

I think you mean deluded.

Dennis are you saying that John Piper is about 2000 years old? Be a bit more charitable please.

The folks at Magherafelt Reformed Baptist were convinced I was a 55 year old man because I commented on their pastor's blog using GI Williamson's picture. When the pastor in question pointed this out to me, I replied by saying that I am sure GI would be flattered to know that people think he is only 55 (when, in reality, he is in his mid-80s).

That's interesting!


I'll make a note of that in my Bible!

I'm sorry. Piper graduated from Fuller, I graduated from Fuller. Think some of us tend to have messiah complexes?

Hmm, perhaps John Piper is Paul reincarnate...that could explain how Piper has a great understanding of Romans 9 in his exegesis of the chapter. Although if Piper was really Paul reincarnate I'm sure he wouldn't be a credobaptist....
So scratch that idea

What is meant by "Christian Hedonism"?

Why? Are you anticipating that Paul would change his position from the one taught in the Bible?

Piper has!

Sorry, you certainly are not diluted. I think that is the modern American way of spelling deluded.
