Thank you, Matthew.  I'll have to re-read the sermon, but at first blush
it 
seems a good "third way".  Also I saw the posts about the 'controversy' 
about predestination.  I remembered those discussions of past days.
And by the way, I'd be interested in hearing from you how one knows one is

saved, if indeed that is possible.  We sing Blessed Assurance, etc., as
you 
know.
Thanks again.
Blessings,
Ann
