I was raised as a Plymouth Brethren and that influenced
me in some negative ways.I went to a LIBERAL, Liberal Arts
College and started to attend an Evangelical Free Church.Though it is not reformed the pastor and I attended one of the reformed conferences at 10th Presbyterian in
Philly.One of the teachers at my college(also a PB)told me
(after I asked what author I should read for Christian growth)
to check out Dr.L-Jones.So I went through most of the early volumes of his Roman series at the college library.The Doctor
was wonderful.He was quite the tonic.Not only was his expo-
sition so different and clear and God-exalting,I started to develop a real love for Church History.I noted all the names
of historical figures and movements.He is responsible(humanly speaking)for bringing me along the Calvinistic path.
R.C.Sproul's books were a staple for me in the early and mid-eighties.I have noticed how many on this board have been helped spiritually by him.
Staying with the E.F.for 18 years was way too long.I have
no idea why I stayed so long while better churches were available to me.I finally joined a Reformed Baptist Church.Now,in S.Korea I fellowship with an independent,fundamental group.It's not reformed,but I know you can guess that my options are limited.The pastor is godly
and seeks to be as biblical as possible within his background.
