There was no Calvinism before John Calvin. Or no Lutherism before Martin Luther. We all have an individual walk with Christ and understand Him where we are. If you want to start a new tradition I don't see anything wrong with it. As long as it follows Truth and you are led by the Holy Spirit. But wait, we do have new traditions... worship in our car is ok while we are driving even to places we know we should not go. eating pizza while doing a quasi-Bible study using movies to explain God Blogging So it appears we have entered into a new area of Christianity based on technology. We have RSS feeds that is the absolute latest words from our religious leaders and now I learn that people Twitter the sermons and ask text messages. After 2,000 years we see the way worship has changed. Imagine just relying only on spoken word...would we believe? But Pattonism? I am sure right now the anti-Pattonists are sharpening their claws. But I don't see why not. I mean there was no Moses before Moses. So if God calls you into why not? Michael,
