re: Finney got it ALL WRONG

So I've been reading the gobbeltygook--I mean the book--and let me tell you, Finney's quote from the above post hardly deserves mention compared with the rest of his statements. I mean, I've never read anything so likely to make a fence sitter want to run straight into the arms of consistent Calvinism. (Or to make a nice lady want to yell bad words at a dead author.)

Always completely to the root. (probably not correct latin grammar)

Okay, call me a fool if you must, but "semper plene radix"? I don't get it. I google the words and come up with "always fully root (Rx)" or "ever fully prescription". And then I look at the words and say, "Huh?"

Explain please...

Finney's Systematic Theology: wow. That is a big book.

I recently purchased Finney's Systematic Theology, and it came in the mail just now. Although I cannot promise when I'll get to it, due to my housewifery duties, I will eventually get back to y'all with my opinion. I just feel sorry for the guy, what with everybody hating him and all. I guess my goal is to decide if I should keep on feeling sorry for him or switch to regarding him as an enemy.

P.S. I went straight to the chapter called "Depravity" and read two or three random sentences. So far, I disagree with his three sentences. Hmmmm, not a good sign in his favor.

Thank you, to all, for your kind words, and most especially for your prayers.

Thomas, welcome back. I think a decade of active military service would be a resounding "yes" to your question, with experience working with all branches of this, the finest military machine ever assembled, yet which is being run by (mostly) buffoons, by my personal observations. Why do you ask? (I am guessing you are seeking some way to justify a female CINC while simultaneously rejecting daughter-drafting.)

Bahnsen8, did you or are you currently serving in the United States military?
