I haven’t thought of one of these in awhile and due to homework, classes, and getting over last week’s Puritan Conference I have not much time to write a blog post today. So… You might be a Calvinist if… You own a NIV Bible and its placed in the fiction section of your library.

Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow. (2 Samuel 23:5) This is not so much one promise as an aggregate of promises—a [...]
