John listening to some of the speakers I had heard something similar that one of those recent graduates would start preaching on the doctrines taught in the New Hampshire Confession when the Matriarch of the church came up and told him she didn't believe that. (This being the confession of faith that the church claimed it held to) When he confronted her with the truth taught in the scriptures that was enumerated by the confession she left the church and started a smear campaign. When it was found that he held to the doctrines of grace he was ejected from the church. And this was a pastor who was evangelistic, went visiting door to door etc... But the people wouldn't stand for the truth.


Peter

If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself. Augustine of Hippo
