This is a very good message by Joni Earickson on a subject that is dear to my heart.

I wonder how many here have listened to the sermon attached to the article when you click on it.

I listened to it last night, and came out of it a high calvinist. If anyone listens to this, comments are welcome.

Above is a sermon by Peter Meney entitled, "With God, It's Personal.".

It is an excellent sermon, and echoes what the core of us believe here.

Blessings to you ALWAYS,

Ps 4:1-8, (KJV)

1 Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

How comforting it is to know that in this Psalm, our suffering is pointed out to be enlarging us. We have the answer as to why God orders suffering in our lives. In our carnal nature, we want to avoid suffering as much as possible, but yet this verse encourages us in our suffering. Reminds us of Romans 8:28.

The attached file is long. It is 33 pages long, but don't let this put you off. It is an excellent study by Stanley Phillips on "Hyper-calvinism" and how it compares with "Evangelical Calvinism / Neo-calvinism".

Enjoy!!
