I was converted in 1973. In 1975 a friend had become reformed in theology. We debated about it for one year. At the end of that year I admitted that the Bible taught predestination and election. Since I was converted in 1973 I commited myself to follow the scriptures alone as my guide. So while I did not like the doctrine, I knew that it was biblical so I have been reformed in theology ever since. Over time God has given me a love for that truth.
How did you come to Reformed Theology/Calvinism?

Book 1 - The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination by Loraine Boettner.
Book 2 - Outlines of Theology by A.A. Hodge

In other words never been anything else but Reformed since conversion.
Then an RB church started nearby and the rest is history....
