"GRPL Diplomat, Lutheran Ping List"

Read this a bit more carefully, I identify myself as GRPL Diplomat to the Lutheran Ping List. The GRPL is the Greta Reformed Ping List. Lutherans are not Reformed, they are Lutheran.

But I have seen you professing to be a Calvinist, and that is generally the position of mainstream Protestant churches.

No, it's not. Calvinism was the stance of the Presbyterian Church, USA and some Dutch Reformed Congregations, but those denominations left Calvinism behind when they started their slide into apostasy. Other Mainstreamers, such as the UMC and several others are decidedly Arminian, always have been.

Oh, many Southern Baptists, the same denomination as Stanley, are firmly 5 point Calvinists.

Well, rest assured that Dr. Stanley is not a Calvinist.
