Moody Who?
My good blogging friend Peter Lumpkins has informed me of an error in my post "Particular Redemption, Part 7 of 7". Peter states, "You have confused Dwight L. Moody, the famous evangelist, with Dale Moody, the Southern Baptist theologian. Professor Nettles was critiquing Dale Moody in his book, not D.L. Moody, the evangelist. "
Thank you Peter for the correction. I apologize for any confusion. BTW, who says that blogging is not beneficial? I've had two seminary professors read this paper on Particular Redemption, one with a PhD and another is head of a seminary extension. Neither of them caught the error of identity.
Thank you and this is just one more reason why I will continue to blog.

Chris,
I want you to know, my Brother Chris, I surely do not gloat about pointing out errors of others. As I said to you, I have had my share of "uh-ohs" my self. And I agree with you: blogging can be darn right helpful and useful when mutual respect is offered.
I want also to say, looking hindsight, I should have emailed you rather than comment on the post. I frankly did not even think to look and see if one could directly email you. But there it is right on your about page. For this, I am truly sorry.
I appreciate, my Brother, you engaging fairly and openly. I possess the most profound respect for someone who will listen to "the opposition." Unfortunately, not all bloggers are as welcoming as you to dissent. I recently was "banned" from a popular blog for the lone reason of expressing ideas of dissent. Very interesting we SBs.
Have a grace-filled day. With that, I am...

Peter,
It is quite okay. I'm not interested in building myself up to be infallible. Even with the identity error, the thrust of the post is still valid. The only thing out of order is the popularity of the Moody that proposed the idea.
Anyway, all is well with the Lord's leading.

Chris: Don't know why I came over here tonite. Got so many things I need to be doing. But just happened to be re-reading(which I HAVE to do quite often cause I forget who says what) Peter's bloggers' entries. And there is alot to digest over there. Especially when you and some others get to dialoging.
Then I get here and low and behold there is someone actually giving credit to a dear friend of mine for pointing out an error. So often, folks are so ungracious when they are corrected. I give you Kudos Chris. Seriously.
That said, I truly feel that I needed to tell you that I do appreciate your dialog and stimulation to discussions.
I must confess I haven't spent much time reading your blog cause I've been trying to figure out what all the ruckus over the sermons preachers preach and the trustees are doing in all those meetings. I'm totally baffled by some of the stuff I'm reading. I've been blown away by some of the things I've seen people do on their sites. And then, I have also been trying to remember whose site I posted a comment on, too.
I apologize in a rather sheepish sorta way for taking up so much of your space tonite. Just couldn't believe it when I got here that I'd find what I did as the blog of the day topic and the blog comment.
I thank you for at least pointing out that Peter ain't as dumb as some think he is. Course...that's just the biased/big sister thing in me.
Now, I'm gonna spend some time reading your archives. Anything you'd like to point me to in particular, given you know how I go on and on? Blessings...SelahV
PETER: Banned? Banned? Now that's funny! I can't believe you were banned. You give such fodder for folks to copy and paste and serve to the uhhhh...well, let's just say I'm at a loss for words on who gets to eat that fodder.

Selah V,
Thanks for coming by. You are quite verbose :-) but that is okay with me.
I'll be blogging a little more than I have lately before long.
Blessings,
Chris
chris...verbose? Me? Nah! I ramble. Smart folks are verbose. I'm not sure about the baby/etenity debate you had with Joop. But I think I'm on your side. SelahV
