Watch this from John Piper on some cautions for the "New Reformed"...
I think those are sound and sober words. There are plenty of people who frankly seem to love Reformed theology more than God. That seems harsh and counter-intuitive but I have fallen into that trap and still do on occasion.There is a middle ground between anti-intellectualism and prideful scholasticism. Finding that middle ground requires both study and humility. Too often Reformed theology is used as a club to beat people over the head with or a platform to trumpet our own theological superiority. That simply should not be found anywhere in the church.

This is a great and timely caution. We need more admonishments like Dr. Piper's. Good post.
