Frankly Tom,
One of the biggest turn offs to "Reformed Theology" is the arrogance of people like yourself. Just about every vocal proponent of Calvinism - with the exception of Voddie Baucham and Paul Washer - comes off as an arrogant ass who looks down on those who don't agree with them and therefore must not be part of the "elect".
The topic of Calvinism has come up a few times on the forum and never once have I seen you respond with love and compassion, but with arrogance and pride. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you are not arrogant or prideful in person, but that is how you come off here anytime Calvinism is discussed.
Proverbs 16:5
Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD; Assuredly, he will not be unpunished.
James 4:6
But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, “GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.”
A person who is not inwardly prepared for the use of violence against him is always weaker than the person committing the violence. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago
