About

The title “Feileadh Mor” refers to the great kilt. The great kilt is an untailored garment made of plaid, gathered up into pleats by hand and drapes over the wearer, secured by a wide belt. I decided to title my blog “Feileadh Mor” because the kilt conjures up images of Scotland and I find Scotland interesting.

Just as the great kilt covers a great many things, this blog will cover a great many topics including theology, history, whiskey, politics, etc… I’m 34 years old, married and the proud father of three, living in Ontario Canada. I enjoy many things and I wanted a place to store and share the fascinating information that I find while surfing.  A statement of faith can be found here and below.

Theological positions: Independent, Strict & Particular, Predestinarian.

Soteriological Position: What theologians call “Calvinistic” (leans toward Supralapsarianism)

Eschatological Position: Amillennial Historicist

Covenantal Position: Covenant theology, slightly modified

Creeds and Confessions: London Baptist Confession of 1644 & 1689, Goat Yard Confession of Faith (1729) and most of the Gospel Standard Articles of Faith

*Some questions I had to fill out on a forum that I thought I would include.

Are some men elected to salvation? Yes.

Are some men elected to damnation? Yes.

Is salvation by works? No.

Jesus died for all men? No.

God loves all men? No.

Christ experienced sin in His person? No.

Was sin imputed or imparted to Christ? Imputed.

Is righteousness imputed or imparted to believers? Imputed.

God predestines all things, including sin? Yes.

God wanted Adam to fall into sin? Yes, it was decreed.

God has how many wills? One. (His decretive will of purpose is His will of pleasure)

Do you believe in Justification from Eternity? Yes.

What point in time is righteousness imputed to the elect based upon? The entire life of
Christ culminating in His death.

Baptism is required for salvation? No.

Baptism is the sign of the new covenant? No.

My view of the sabbath can be summed up as follows, “one that is strong in faith, and has a greater degree of the knowledge of the Gospel, and of evangelical liberty, knows that the distinction of days, as well as of meats, is taken away … Christ the true sabbath and rest is come; and therefore, being firmly persuaded there is no more holiness in days than there is in places, has the same regard for one day as another.” [John Gill]

[I hold to the Baptist view of the Lord's Supper, not the Reformed view.]

  2. You are the first person that I have ever seen (online) that knows what the Confessions of 1644 and ’89 were, much less read them. I happened upon your site while looking for a Gadsby Hymnal with the music included. I am a Baptist living in San Martin, California. http://www.sgbcsv.org/ I look forward to reading through some of your articles here. By the way, Peterson makes a GREAT pipe, if you don’t mind the investment.. :)
