Puritan Board Freshman
So before I became an adherent of TULIP, I used the words Calvinism and Reformed synonymously. At my LBC 1689 church, the pastor uses those words differently. He says Reformed also means adhering to Covenant theology.
As I peruse books I have, it doesn't seem completely clear. MacArthur considers himself Reformed. But he's a premillennial dispensationalist. Other resources I have seem to use the terms synonymously.
Anything that's clearly defining on this or is it simply seeing how every pastor or author uses the terms?
