I became a Reformed Christian after exploring Orthodox Christianity because my observations about the world and the nature of Creation were more inline with #Puritanism.

Man is not basically good nor are we free from the impulses of our fallen nature. No amount of good deeds can overcome our sin. By grace alone we are saved.

Every step we take towards Christ is only made possible by God himself. Our focus should therefor consist of disciplining the evil in ourself and our communities to make room for the Holy Spirit.

YMMV.
