I didn't expect to hear from Vance again, so I was doubting it at first, but apparently God planned (predestined, sovereignly decreed, before the foundations of the world, who can resist His will) otherwise <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I asked him about the five points=number of death thing. He chuckled and said, "Just look at Genesis 5:5." After the conversation, I looked it up, and it reads: "So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years, and he died."

I replied (with a grin), "I hate to break this to you, but Vance has five letters, and so does Jesus." He said, "Well that's certainly true."

I asked if he'd read James White and James Montgomery Boice, to which he said yes. He's working on a response to James White's most recent book, and he's responded to White's The Potter's Freedom and Dave Hunt's What Love is This. We have the journal they were in, so I'm interested in how he responded to them (probably agreed with Hunt, or maybe thought Hunt tread "too softly" upon the tulips.)

Anyway, he's sending a catalog of his books to acquisitions (with my name on it <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />). Also, he said that he had friends in Louisville, so he'd stop by the library to say thanks again.

Maybe the Sovereign Lord will have me to be wearing my Reformation shirt on that day <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" />

By the way, I didn't mention this discussion board, but, if you want me to, I could email him. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/coffee2.gif" alt="" />


True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin
