Calvinists infiltrate SBC; membership levels off. Calvinists reach majority status in SBC; membership declines. Calvinists take over SBC; churches die. Calvinist/reformed churches are dying everywhere, but somehow I am expected to believe that they are "evangelistic." Do the math. Evangelistic churches grow. Calvinistic churches decline and ultimately die.

He may look like a gardener--Genesis 2:8, John 20:15. He may look like a builder--Job 38:4, Mark 6:3. He may look like a shepherd--Psalm 23:1, John 10:11. He may look like a judge--Genesis 18:25, Acts 17:30-31. He may look like a King--Psalm 47:2, Revelation 19:16.

God is light (I John 1:5). What does light look like? God is love (I John 4:8). What does love look like? God is a man of war (Exodus 15:3). What does a man of war look like? God is a consuming fire (Deuteronomy 4:24). What does a consuming fire look like? God is a Spirit (John 4:24). What does a Spirit look like? Who is sufficient for these things?
They said my goats were sometimes pressing six or seven keys at each stroke and jamming up the system. It seems like technology would be able to compensate for this by now.
