"Reformed Stooge":

This was sent to me from my brother in the Lord Corey from Lancater PA, I stand with you brother as a fellow Reformed Stooge for Christ who wants to see a MODERN DAY REFORMATION. The time is at hand for the True Church to stand up and make it's stand for the TRUTH does MATTER.


Reformed: A summary of Reformed theology, or what it means to be Reformed, may be seen in the following: [1]
It means to affirm the great "Sola's" of the Reformation. (See the Five Solas)
It means to affirm and promote a profoundly high view of the sovereignty of God.
It means to affirm the doctrines of grace. . . to see God as the author of salvation from beginning to end. (See Calvinism)
It means to be creedal. . . to affirm the great creeds of the historic, orthodox church. (See e.g. the Nicene Creed)
It means to be confessional. . . to affirm one or more of the great confessions of the historic orthodox church. (see e.g. the Westminster Confession)
It means to be covenantal. . . to affirm the great covenants of Scripture and see those covenants as the means by which God interacts with and accomplishes His purposes in His creation, with mankind. (see Covenant Theology)
It means to take seriously the Great Commission of Matthew 28:19-20. . . to affirm the primacy of mission and understand that mission.
It means to have a distinctly Christian worldview that permeates all of life.
