Yesterday I was accused of being "anti-Calvinist." Problem: Calvinists are so busy attacking everyone else that they don't explore the possibility of internal error within Calvinism (b/c of the noetic effects of sin). The Westminster Confession Faith says error happens(31.3).

As such, non-confessional, non-connectional Calvinists w/their binary, black & white, "spiritual milk" way of thinking automatically interpret noting errors & imperfections as being "anti." It's the essence of immature tribalism posing as maturity: criticism is an attack threat.

There's an advantage of having a Confession of Faith rather than some vague notions of "Calvinism." When you're in a denom where pastors are held to a Confession you can say "errors within Calvinism make it vulnerable to X" without being labelled "anti." Confessionalism FTW.

"Calvinism" isn't the rule of faith. WCF 31.3: "All synods or councils, since the Apostles' times, whether general or particular, may err; and many have erred. Therefore they are not to he made the rule of faith, or practice; but to be used as a help in both." #Freedom
