This Week in Calvinism - February 27, 2009

• John Calvin the "father of America"?
  
  
• Calvinists told to get the "L" outta here.
  
  
• Greg Koukl reconciles Calvinism and evangelism tactics.
  
  
• Ethan Smith reconciles evangelism and predestination.
  
  
• What do you mean when you say God is sovereign?
  
  
• In 1819, Thomas Taylor wrote a critique entitled A Solemn Caution Against the Ten Horns of Calvinism. You can read it online or download it here.
  
  
• Michelle laments the "false doctrine of election," even providing a few proof-texts (KJV-only, of course) to support her position. But what about scripture's abundant use of words like "elect" and "election"? What about passages like Romans 9 and Ephesians 1?
  
  
• WHIFF! WHIFF! Do you feel a breeze? That's just Bob Ross, a.k.a. the Calvinist Flyswatter. He's taking another swing (and a miss) at the folks at Founders Ministries, a group he calls "a proselytizing parasitical sect, soaked in Hybrid Calvinism."
