    I was Saved in a Reformed Baptist Church, so I was a 5-Point Calvinist. I got Married and changed to an Independent Fundamental Baptist Church, and they are NOT Calvinists. I learned from both, so I think I've reconciled the problem areas... One of my goals in life is to show Christians that...
