 THE STEWART ROYAL LINEAGE
Calvinism is not the name by which Calvinists prefer to have their religion called, nor do they generally call themselves "Calvinists".
Calvinism recognises, as in the New Testament, the practices of the Jewish synagogue, the government of each church by its elders, therefore a Presbyter is known as an elder.
Calvinism's divisive propaganda led to the triumph of Cromwell and the replacement of the Kings of the Stuart line by the House of Orange-Nassau [King William III].

The Particular and General Baptists would disagree over Arminianism and Calvinism until the formation of the Baptist Union of Great Britain in the 1800s under Andrew Fuller and William Carey for the purpose of missions.

 Q & A--Page 2 of 2
Some commentators, such as Luther, Calvin, and Beza, suggest that John asks the question because his disciples needed strengthening, others indicate that John's faith is being tested because Jesus does not correspond to his (John's) expectation.

Calvin: “So you’ve said, but what was it about you that caused you to choose Christ whereas Charles does not?”

 View From The Pew: IMB and Baptism, Round 2
By narrowing the field in defining what is a true "Southern Baptist", the IMB is making it clear that those not born, bred, and dunked as Southern Baptists are not welcome to serve God in all the capacities of Southern Baptist life.
This action is an affront to those of the faith who died upholding Scripture as the final authority on all matters of faith and life, people like John Wycliffe, Jan Hus, Calvin, Luther, Zwingli, Melancthon, and a host of others, who would not be accepted today because their baptism wasn't by immersion.
By narrowing the field in terms of baptism and who is acceptable in applying the ordinance, the IMB is implicitly making at least a two-tiered system of Southern Baptist Christianity.

 Aaron D. Wolf on American Christians and dispensationalism   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Despite their aversion to dogma, however, these believers retained the eschatology of the Puritans: The great “revivals,” they reasoned, were proof that the Holy Ghost was at work in America, bringing about the Millennium—the reign of Christianity over all the earth.
Being a Presbyterian was not as important as being an evangelical (though many remained within their formal churches); and, chances are, you were “converted” quite apart from a church, in an open field where Charles Finney and his contemporary (early-19th-century) Christian musicians were holding their traveling meeting.
They must be led back to the path of orthodoxy by Christians immersed in the traditions of the Church, which teach that the next event on “God’s calendar” is the Judgment, for which we all must be prepared.

(This first use is not always for baseball; see Tropicana Field and Turner Field.) I only “reset” a ballpark’s age when it is rebuilt from “scratch”; therefore, I use 1923 as the opening date for Yankee Stadium even though it received extensive renovation prior to the 1976 season.
In other instances, such as at Burlington, Iowa, there is no permanent stadium structure, which causes me to use the date at which the field was first used for professional baseball.
On the other hand, the city of Albuquerque billed the work on its Sports Stadium as a “renovation”, but a completely new stadium was built around the old field, so I list Isotopes Park as opening in 2003.

Today all that land is dotted with auto salvage yards, graveyards for rusty oil field equipment, and abandoned farmlands overgrown with wild juniper bushes.
TR supposedly means "truly Reformed," and it normally applies to folks who practice a very strict Presbyterianism where either John Calvin or the Scottish covenanters are deemed the epitome of everything orthodox.
In that particular forum, however, the label is regularly and liberally used as a veiled reference to James White and the PyroManiac, both of whom are Baptists.
