I heard an interesting remark today, attributed to one of our OPC pastors on the east coast:
"There's no such thing as a Reformed Baptist, because a reformed Baptist is a Presbyterian."
Heh.

I feel like you just slapped my inner child.
Or not. But I'll rock back and forth and weep uncontrollably anyway.

Heh. | I thought Reformed Baptists were more Reformed than Presbyterians?? Didn't they also reform the doctrine of baptism?

So it seems logical to me that Baptist are Reformed but not Presbyterians.

What would a Calvinistic Lutheran be called?
To be honest I think I am a Calvinist that admires Luther, more than I am a Lutheran.

I think that would be a Cooltheran, Martin.
Oops, that would be a Cøøltheran in your case.

It will be a sign of real reform when people who read Col 2 and equate baptism with circumcision in a certain way with children of believers, and people who read Romans 6 and equate baptism with death, burial, resurrection and union with Christ by faith, actually all get along and understand the other scriptural point of view, and focus on praying for another great awakening, instead of wasting time and energy being contemptuous of the other position.

That knife cuts both ways. If a Reformed Baptist is a Presbyterian, than a Reformed Presbyterian is a Baptist.

It is God that multiplies our sorrows.... God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry |

Someone who was preaching a sermon on why sola gratia was a lie from the devil insisted that we'd all end up as antibaptists if we believed it.
