Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month. December 2014: Alan Jacob's "Book of Common Prayer" at: http://www.amazon.com/Book-Common-Prayer-Biography-Religious/dp/0691154813/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417814005&sr=8-1&keywords=jacobs+book+of+common+prayer. January 2015: A.F. Pollard's "Thomas Cranmer and the English Reformation: 1489-1556" at: http://www.amazon.com/Thomas-Cranmer-English-Reformation-1489-1556/dp/1592448658/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420055574&sr=8-1&keywords=A.F.+Pollard+Cranmer.

Preach Reprove Rebuke & Exhort - 2 Tim 4:2

"The Pharisee Card" as the tool to silence inquiry, analysis, exposure and, where necessary, rebukes and chastisements. Preach Reprove Rebuke & Exhort - 2 Tim 4:2. What do you do when you confront someone with their false doctrine and Bible twisting and they accuse you of being a Pharisee? You need to hear this segmen...t of the Fighting for the Faith Radio program about those who play the Pharisee Card. We've seen Crouch/Pentecostal defenders "play the card." Rich Warren is now playing the card. My view? A sign of desperation at being reproved and rebuked. A sign of one losing in reasoned, Confessional, Biblical inquiry.

Very commendable and recommended.
