    Talking Milt is Back!

    All right... I am back!
    By the way I AM THE FIRST BRAZILIAN here in this Forum and have been a moderator here in the past and left only because I wanted to. I love everyone here and everything that was said about my leaving, different than what I say here is incorrect...

    Anyway, I am back and I am happy to be among the best! As I usually say: "I joined the wise and became an exception to the group..."

    For those of you in Rio Linda, this is "self-deprecating"

    Watch out SpurgeonBob Squarepants! The Golden Emerod Award awaits for you!

    Welcome back milt - it was nice talking with you again!
    Ditch the Garbage! - Too many people are proud of their humility - I, on the other hand, am not humble - and am proud of it!

    "Luther's New Testament was so much multiplied and spread by printers that even tailors and shoemakers, yea, even women and ignorant persons who had accepted this new Lutheran gospel, and could read a little German, studied it with the greatest avidity as the fountain of all truth. Some committed it to memory, and carried it about in their bosom. In a few months such people deemed themselves so learned that they were not ashamed to dispute about faith and the gospel not only with Catholic laymen, but even with priests and monks and doctors of divinity." - A complaint by German humanist Johann Cochlaeus.

    Re: Milt is Back!

    Thanks everyone!

    I am glad I am back as well! I missed all y'all, as they say in the South. I plan to get an update on everything here before I start posting. In fact I don't even know how to post anymore or start a new thread...

    If it matters, as of late I have fallen in love for Calvin even more so than before. Not only for his writings and theology, (without necessarily accepting everything blindly) but also by his person as it is revealed in his writings about his wife, the Holy Spirit, and other things not commonly divulged by the Reformed circles. So, apart from paedobaptism and a few other minor issues, too minor to even remember, I became 21st century fan of Calvin. I believe Calvin to be the dividing mark in the ages from 1500's to today. There is a B.C. (Before Christ) and a B.C. before Calvin and a A.C. (after Calvin) in my view.
    I heard we are around 100th anniversary of Darwin and also 500th of Calvin, and their work. Both men influenced our culture drastically in diametrically opposed ways. I am glad God raised Calvin to be the determining factor in changing the theological world forever, weighing his influence down on proponents and opponents. I am glad I can repeat the words ascribed to George Whitfield:

    "We are all born arminians; Grace makes us Calvinist".

    Well, so much for that! I love you all and pray that our relationship here will be fruitful, long lasting and will glorify Christ.

    Dear Milt:

    Welcome back. I am new to the forum but I am glad to meet you and I am very glad and appreciative of your love and respect for Calvin. Actually we are all born Pelagians; but there's not much difference!!!

    Blessings,

    I bet the real reason you're back is that you needed a Batman fix.

    Welcome back Milt......it has been a long time!

    Just so you know some things never change, I'm still on dial-up....

    Looking forward to your insights,

    Human compassion is deceptive and impotent. When we set that up as the standard of
    judgment, even God will appear to lack sympathy. ......"Better is open rebuke than hidden love" -- Love is bold to speak the truth in open rebuke for the benefit of someone who needs the correction. Each time I speak this way to a person, I risk losing his respect and support, but I will do it because I love him. "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear" (1 John 4:18), Vincent Cheung

    Dear Bro. Milt,

    I cannot begin to express my overwhelming joy in the Lord's grace that you are participating here again! May He abundantly bless your presence and contributions here for a long time to come!

    I will be leaving Asia to return to the U.S tomorrow morning (1/2 day from now) and I so look forward to the coming dialog!

    Bro. Bob
    Now see here how sleepy-headed all our opponents are, and how little it helps a man to rely on the ancient fathers, for all their repute down the course of the ages! Were they not all equally blind to, yes, and heeldess of, Paul's clearest and and plainest words?

    Welcome back, brother Milt!
    Rom 8:18-21, (NASB), For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
