Hello and welcome back to SoTriology 101.

Today we're going to be engaging with some interlocutors on Twitter, our X as it's called now.

There's some good back and forth on social media at times.

Other times it is just trash, but I enjoy the banter.

I enjoy iron-sharpening iron at a recent encounter with a guy named Oz that I'm going to go over a little bit with you all to help us to understand some of the differences that we have with our Calvinist friends.

I think Oz means well.

I think if he and I lived in the same city, we'd probably be friends and enjoy having a cup

of coffee and discussing these things just like I do with my Calvinistic buddies around here.

I enjoy these kinds of conversations. Sometimes it comes across as more contentious than I intended ever to be on social media just simply because you can't see a person's face. You can't hear the tone of their voice. And so sometimes things come across harsher than they mean. And so if Oz happens to watch this, which I told him I was getting on and I invited him on, he has work, so he wasn't able to do that right now. As you all know, I jump on when I have an opportunity. I had an opportunity this afternoon, so I decided to engage in some of this. I'm also going to be answering live questions that you may have. Then there are the comment section there. I'm also streaming on Twitter, X, if you will, and Facebook and other places. So there's

probably streams of questions coming in from different places. So I'll try to get to as many

of those as I can. Let me know in the comment section if you're not able to hear or to see

something. I already see Chris, saved by grace, says let's get it. And then Dean also says, God bless you,

Layton. I appreciate those that are already jumping on. Yes, and one's mentioning I miss when

we had those impromptued Google hangouts back in the day. I remember those very well. Josiah, let's go, and many others

jumping on and now making a lot more comments. So appreciate that. I love the live comments.

I can't see them all all the time because like I said, they're coming in from different streams,

and it goes streams by pretty fast. But if you have questions that relate to what we're talking about,

please feel free to bring those up. Also, remember this is a listener-supported ministry.

Thank you for those who give on a regular basis.

It really does mean so much, and it's working.
