Paul's Passing Thoughts

1. Never, never contend with elders in a Reformed church concerning doctrine because:

A.  To them, Authority = Truth so you are totally wasting your time.

B.  If things go south, other pastors, and other churches will not help you. I repeat: they

will not help you because:

a. Authority = Truth.

2. Never, never agree to any kind of counseling in a Reformed church because:

A. Change is NOT the goal, because:

a. you can’t change the totally depraved.

B.  There must be some other goal that couldn’t be good such as:

a. getting dirt on you for future use.

3.  Never, never underestimate what totally depraved leaders will do to totally depraved

subjects because:

A. When everybody is totally depraved, stuff happens.

B.  You deserve it because you are totally depraved, and:

a. who can dish it out better than the totally depraved?
