I'm Presbyterian, I also have a dog that snores, is that okay or do I need another baptism?
No matter what, do NOT baptise the cat!

Dutch Reformed?

Took me a couple days but eventually I found the love-in! Nice break from watching people pistol-whipping each other... Glad I'm predestined to have a sense of humour! By the grace of God, of course! Lol

Haha! I attend Our Saviour of the Desert Eagle and we read from the holy gun manual every Sunday. We're allowed to talk the talk, but we're not allowed to walk the walk. Guns aren't permitted on persons here.
Oh TinTin! Proving Aussies do it better! Way to represent! :D

Duly noted. Fun fact! The Puritans carried in Church.

In fact, there was a law in Massachusetts Bay that required men bring their guns to church in case there is an Indian attack. It's technically still on the books with arguable legal standing.

Pffft... Not sure what kinda "church" you attend... I use whether or not I can pack heat as a deciding factor in all my decisions. If people won't take me seriously, well, I'll force em. I'm not to be messed with... All 155cm of me!

Lolol!

Ah, its a long story... But in a nutshell I have never been exposed to any organized religion. Agnostic who had her eyes opened solo. Holy Spirit prompted me to get a few Bibles and told me my life is gonna change. So I locked myself away from the world, studied like my life depended on it, and ended up falling in love. Not some cutesy little fling either... But falling in head over heels.

More to it, of course, but I would say that the concepts of predestination align with my understanding. That being said, I do not know enough to identify with a brand. Besides a "Bible believing Christian" brand.

I'm always curious to hear what other people understand and bring it back to God in prayer and He directs my steps! Hasn't failed me yet!

You're Dutch and you're Reformed. Ergo, you're Dutch Reformed no matter what church you attend. :p

At the end of the day, almost every Protestant I know claims to be a Bible Believer at the end of the day. It can get confusion, but it's a beautiful thing.

Sweet! I'll take it!
And I'm not just saying that because you carry two guns...

So much Latin in the forums today. I learned today that the latin language helped protect Christians from lapsing into Arian heresies.

Divinitas salutorum.

The grammar is the roughest part. For me, at least.

People complain about German grammar all the time, but I took to it naturally. Different strokes for different folks, am I right?

Shoot, you deserve a high five for trying.

I couldn't even master Pig Latin.
