Naw, I'm a woman and they invited me.
Anyway, I told you guys not to go. I own an ezboard, and I am quite familiar with Time Bombers. There IS a certain gentleman who posts there and he is an outstanding person. Ken Abbott is his name. He is Reformed and it looked as if he is trying to hold down the fort all by himself. Bless his heart.

OK, folks. I think we should refrain from signing on over there. These folks have a wrong impression of us as it is. To them it looks like the Calvinist Army is trying to land on there beaches and take over their country. It is not going to help with our testamony. We know they do not want us there so do not go. The invite was obviously meant to stir up trouble.

I got the invite, too, and looked around there a little. I soon realized they don't even want to [i:0ba500d1f0]think[/i:0ba500d1f0] about issues like Calvinism, so I then proceeded with my reading of the latest news at PB - then I saw this thread. From the little I read at that site, I'm not surprised that they kicked a bunch of you all off just for mentioning the word "Calvinism." At the same time, we should definitely keep a Christlike attitude about this, and pray for them, asking God to give them more of a desire to learn about opposing viewpoints, or if not, at least to be honest in their terms of use about what they won't accept.
In Christ,

No worries, mate. I've got it. If he does not reply to me about why he did this in 2 days, he's banned.

How could we? Judging from that other thread, "everyone's packing." Except me. But then, as long as I'm hanging around all you guys ("guys" meaning guys and gals) I shouldn't have much to worry about. :bs2:

I got a U2U. I was suspicious, but decided to see what it was. I read through "What is a Calvinist" and realized what a blessing Puritan Board is.
Thank you to all who keep this board going! It really is edifying to me.
oh, and I decided [b:2fb120f46d]not[/b:2fb120f46d] to join the other board.

Ok, you guys have been having all kinds of fun without me this weekend! I, too, got one (sorry Janice, I guess you're just not as special as Suzanne and I are!).
My first thought was that it was a joke on me (not that I'm paranoid or anything). Then I thought about it and the more I thought about the word "bomb," the less comfortable I was with the whole concept. I was planning on forwarding the U2U to Scott or Webmaster to find out what the story was?
I'm glad the whole situation resolved itself while I was out & about "partying" all weekend...
Happy Monday! (And if you're not happy it's Monday, have another cup of coffee!)

I glanced at that site ... now for an early morning ramble
It looks like a hodge-podge. There aren't any controls there, except (I guess) that they'll kick you off for being too "theological" or a "calvinist." But hey, let that one fella, "Iconoclast" (a false teacher if he's anything), get a "spiritual" or "seeking" thread going and people are all over it. (Like the screen-name, though
). [ 
public thanks for the puritanboard governors.]
Seeing this stuff makes me kinda sad generally. People will feed themselves on this junk instead of the sincere milk of the Word. And their pastors are obviously spooning them unhealthy formula (or worse!), or they'd recognize the stuff they're eating is putrid swill.
Edward's sermon was still there this morning (nice going Blade). Time was people looked to the church, to pastors, with sermons, and to religion to gain a worldview. Today the preeminent "preachers" are radio talk-show hosts (for conservatives), and university professors (for the liberals). These "opinion makers and shapers" establish the fundamental premises around which the vast majority organize their thinking. Conviction wed to earnest passion is contagious, for good or ill. Alas, the broad church offers so little of substance today.
"Sinners in the Hands..." had all of five looks. I musta been #6 (if they count visitors). No replies. Too long, I suppose, to read it all. Too much work. Not enough sentiment. Too much Hell and fear and holy anger :flaming: . Not enuf "God luvz yew an' haz a wunnerful plaan fer yer laaf." Not surprising. Religion for most is a diversion, a place to dabble, between important things, like the last episode of "Friends," a filthy, degenerate show, mostly about bed-hopping I gather. After 10 seasons,
And all the untamed lusts have burnt out to a cinder
In all directions,
Two exhausted stars,
Miraculously free of scars,
Agree at last to Commit.
And the bobos lap it up like a gospel.I'm glad I serve a Sovereign God. Satan's blinders are bound over the eyes of these people as tightly as ever he did to the ancient (and modern) idolaters. Could things be worse now than at the dawn of the sixteenth century?
Yes.
Which means ... we could be the witnesses of an even greater revival (and persecutions of course). But whether [i:49d3b4db27]we[/i:49d3b4db27] see it or no, [i:49d3b4db27]someone[/i:49d3b4db27] WILL see it. That I firmly believe, provided the Lord tarries his second coming.

I got one and registered.
But then again I will post anywhere.
I was banned from Rapture Ready though because I spoke out about Christians living worldly lives.
A guy there said he loved Kill Bill 2 and would take his mother. I asked if he would take Jesus...BANNED!

Blade,
That was great!
"A guy there said he loved Kill Bill 2 and would take his mother. I asked if he would take Jesus...BANNED!"
I looked at a few of the threads - a lot of religious professors, or just thoroughly confused. I really don't know how Mr. Abbott can stomach it!

I visited the site and read one of the threads about Calvinism. Some were saying how bad Calvinism was and how it irritated them that Calvinists said that others preached a false gospel. One of the posters (don't remember the name) "spoke up" and said it was a shame that they had gotten such a bad impression of Calvinists. I didn't read the whole thread, but he seemed to stick up for Calvinists, while not really defending the doctrine. (perhaps he defended the doctrine later in the thread)
I wonder where they draw the line about what you can and can't say before you get banned. Seems like you'd be walking a tight-rope of sorts trying to avoid being banned.

Can't figure why there'd be any delay. As best as I can tell, its spelled correctly.
Maybe the guy who sent the invitation could put in a good word for you. I'm sure, if he's spent any time on the puritanboard, that he'd know that you're the passive, non-combatant type.

I think MR. Abbot knows longsuffering like I dont. I am gonna pray for him right now that he remains strong in the face of so much heresy.
