I am a person who has listened to Derek and I understand he claims to be a Reformed Christian. But I think, he needs to look long and hard on that. Why would he make one of his heroes a Roman Catholic priest, if he is a Reformed Christian?
What is it that makes a "Reformed Christian"? Is there some set of external rules and guidelines thay say "A Reformed Christian does this but doesn't do that" that makes someone that way or is it a Reformed understanding of theology?
I call myself a Reformed Christian yet I don't agree with infant baptism. Does that mean I'm not Reformed?
One of the people who I have a lot of respect for and have learned a lot from in regards to song writing and lyric writing is Bob Dylan. Does that mean I'm not Reformed?
Back to my original question: what is it that makes someone "Reformed"? Is it an external list of do's and don'ts or is it the theology? Why do you take the stance you do?
