UPDATE: The Carrolls were educated abroad and studied at some of the greater institutions of Europe. I'm sure they read many works of theology by some of the great philosophers of history. I don't know if they gained their theology by parsing a few phrases from the Bible and I'm sure that they didn't have the advantage of websites from 20th Century Dispensationalist and Fundamentalist Preachers. They probably relied on such inferiors as the Apostolic Fathers, Aquinas, Polycarp, Augustine, and other people who weren't sweaty goober television hucksters.
UPDATE TO UPDATE: I miss some the of the one-note dispensationalists and fundamentalists who used to live on this site. The update above was in response to ADios who always had a single slant on postings. The update was in response to her posting on the Carrolls that she hoped that they read the Bible or some such commonly heard television slogans. She left the site and deleted her comments. The update doesn't make sense now, and this bolsters my argument that once a comment is made, and someone reacts to it, it should stay.
