Looking forward to Camp Meeting in Resaca next week. Always good to see everyone and hear some preaching. Several from our Church(FMBC) are going. We already have a block of rooms reserved. This is one of the few "True" camp meetings still going. Unlike most camp meetings, this one is not a glorified buddy reunion. Many are saved in these meetings - a sure indicator of the presence of God there. It is always a blessing to attend. Dr. Kidd will be there Friday night. Don't miss it!! It is the last time in 2009 to hear Bro. Kidd preach.

I don't know for sure who "me" is. I am sure it is not Sam. As for our mutual friend - He has assured me that he is not a calvinist. Besides I've never heard him preach any form of the tulip doctrine - but quite the opposite!! Mark 7:7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

After contact from a preacher friend(who is a calvinist) I have changed the name of the blog to "The Many Faces of Calvinsim". The previous title was meant to be light hearted with no contention intended. Sorry if it was offensive to any one.

We are doing fine. We are active in Church teaching the men and singing in the choir. Also Terannie is teaching 3 of the youth piano lessons. I have started some preliminary instruction with 2 of the youth on the guitar, just kind of testing them. It will take several months before they will be near the level of the OPBC youth group. I am sorry for any hurt. You may find this hard to understand, but Calvinsim is the ONLY reason we left. If you were there then you might know that when the annoucement was made - we left. We are not Calvinist.

Thanks for your question. I do not hate calvinsist. I'm just not one. You have never seen me in any Church not acting in a way other than to contribute to the meeting. I'm being honest about what I am - I wish you and others would just come out like Bro Sam did and say you are a Calvinist. Had this been the case 19 months ago we would not be having this discussion. 19 months ago I made it clear that I would never be a Calvinist. Why are T.U.L.I.P. preachers ashamed to be called Calvinist?? Do they need members so desperately to hide this fact?? Would being honest about this prevent future division?? I have been called by exmembers who claim that Old Pathway was declared from the pulpit (26 months ago)that he was not a calvinist. What changed?? As to the blog - there are just facts on there. No bashing or name calling. Hate is a powerful word. I do beleive in standing for ones convictions. If that appears to be mean or hateful it is misunderstood. I will say this - My wife and I had noticed some of the calvinistic hints in messages, especially since May of this year. We over looked them and tried to get along peacefully with all. When this was declared from the pulpit it was done so in a way that left us no choice. We left that night apologizing and with love for our dear friends. TO THIS DAY - NOT ONE OF THE ADULTS HAS ACKNOWLEGED AN EMAIL OR RETURNED A CALL. We have moved on and I promise you and all who reads this; If my pastor stands in the pulpit and declares he is a calvinist I will be moving on again. I really feel that the reason for no contact is the truth surrounding the situation and that the doctrine is fallible.

Charles, just a question, and I haven't looked at the blog about the crazy/calvinist yet but since you appear to have a vindeta against anything that to you resembles what you think is Calvinism – why did it take you so long to come to know bro. Sam as a Calvinist? Plus, how many times did I see you at his camp all lovie-dovie? You sure did back it longer than you are now hating it?

I want to thank all that visited our Revival @ FMBC last week. Close to capacity crowds every night. It was good to see some old friends as well as make new ones. Bro Meeks was right on time with the messages for the Church. Many in the community came for the 1st time in years. FMBC is the "talk" of the area. We had 5 more join Sunday!! God is blessing in every service. Pray for us as we have seen a surge in our singing schedule. We sang in 10 meetings in 8 days (one was open air)and are physically challenged with all on our plate. It is wonderful to serve the Lord!!
