This Week in Calvinism - April 4, 2014
- Is your God good? Roger Olson's is.
- Pastor Chris Noland believes Calvinism is a false doctrine. Apparently our free will wasn't affected by sin as much as everything else. But we Calvinists do get eternal security right, so we have that going for us.
- Austin Fischer, author of Young, Restless, No Longer Reformed, says:
I began my journey out of Calvinism when I realized that if I were to be a consistent, honest Calvinist I would have to believe some terrible things about God. I realized I, personally, could not have Calvinism and a recognizably good God whose heart was fully revealed at the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. I could not have Calvinism and a God who would rather die than give humans what they deserve. For me, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ was something too generous for Calvinism to make sense of.
Why is it most former Calvinists seem to have never truly understood Calvinism?
ahh yes, the 6th point of Calvinism-If you are truly a Calvinist you would never walk away from it!
