You know, if you think Salvation is not by works you are all Calvinists!!
Since you don't know that you are Calvinists I will just call you Secret Calvinists. SC's.
You don't have to have perfect understanding to be a SC. Even your partial understanding is ok.
That goes double to UnderGrace and Blueladybug.
That's my new term and I'm copyrighting it. Secret Calvinist. All you have to do is believe, even partially, of one of the tenets of Calvinism.
OSAS? Yep, Secret Calvinist.
Not of Works? Yep, Secret Calvinist.
Believe in Christ and Gods Grace? Secret Calvinist.
There's almost no way to NOT be a Secret Calvinist. You would have to contradict almost all Truth. I know some of you are going to try. Good Luck!!!

Intent vs. Impact
You called something someone else did "insane".
Perhaps your intent was not to call them insane. Perhaps your intent was to separate insane actions from an insane mind. Perhaps that was only your intent after the fact.
The impact of what you said is that you actually called the person insane. Because insane actions only come from insane people.
WE can't always know what the impact of what we say will have versus the intent of what we say is. Its easy to deny the impact of what was said. But it is an impact, nonetheless.

Or the way I see it you are a SC disguised as a BL.
Because I knew that you and UnderGrace would be the first to want to distance yourselves...
