What Happens After You Die

[Rhyfelwyr]

When little Portuguese or French peasant girls have divine revelations they see Mary. When a Guadeloupe peasant has a divine revelation, Mary looks ethnically Mexican, just like him. When a Hun has a divine revelation, he becomes a Scot Calvinist.

No, nothing to do with their background. It is divine revelation speaking to them. Mary speaking to them. Individual reading of the Bible speaking to them.

Any yet Louis, I know only a handful of Calvinists through the churches I am involved in, whether mainstream (CofS) or Evangelical.

As for becoming a "Scot Calvinist", I believe I was already a Scot before my conversion.

For the Calvinist, well I belief in TULIP but as I said I'm not the typical Scots Presbyterian, and they would never let me join their congregations like the Free Presbyterians because I cannot accept the Westminster Confession of Faith.

Many practices they hold to are unscriptural and are a throwback to the bondage of the law and are effectively the remnants of Romanism. The Reformation is to me something ongoing, not a finished process. Hardline Presbyterians might not like me for saying this and they can heark back to John Calvin or John Knox as if they were our version of the Catholic saints, but in quoting these guys as if they have scriptural authority they are betraying what they themselves stood for. The fact is I am the one that has the spirit of Reformation and looks 100% to the scripture for guidance and not Calvin's 'Institutes' or whatever.

There are a lot of unscriptural practices in Scottish Presbyterianism, such as... water baptism, communion, the superstitious reciting of the so-called "Lord's Prayer", sabbatarianism, etc etc. All of these are either remants of the law or of Romanism, and if hardline Scots Presbyterians don't like what I have to say on the matter and get all upset and quote the Westminster of Faith at me... well then they can shove it. I don't care what any theologian or confession says, or what their traditions were, because as I said earlier, if it isn't 100% scriptural I don't want it.

As for my "divine revelation" you poke fun at, well all I know from that is the state of my sin and that I look to the the work of the cross for salvation... and that is not something common to my country, but to all them that are born again in every country across the globe.
