About the Reformed Dictionary
This dictionary is not, by far an exhaustive dictionary. It is not even necessarily the way several pastor/teachers use the terms. What this dictionary is solely meant to be, currently, is my understanding of different terms, and a simplistic working definition. So if any terms are not defined according to serious Theologian standards that is why. I am simply not there yet. Now with that said, as my learning increases, I will probably edit some of the definitions to reflect my newer understanding. To put it simply this dictionary is one laymans attempt to explain Theological terms to another layman. Please forgive me for any misrepresentations of words, and feel free to openly correct me, so that I may learn a more correct definition of a word.
Sincerely,
Eric Thomas Anderson-Soli Deo Gloria
