That should have read "not true." I got to bed late last night and was
awakened by a knock on the door early. I think I'll go lay back down. Sorry
to Bro. Jerry for all of the emails.

>> R. Dean,

>> According to Calvinism it might be your mother, your little boy, you

>> After all, praying "Lord, be merciful to me a sinner" is not going to get

>> What think Ye???
