Calvinism Vs Wesleyan Arminianism
The Comparison of Calvinism and Wesleyan Arminianism by Carl L. Possehl Membership Class Resource B.S., Upper Iowa University, 1968 M.C.M., Olivet Nazarene University, 1991 Pastor, Plantation Wesleyan Church 10/95 Edition When we start to investigate the difference between Calvinism and Wesleyan Arminianism, the question must be asked: "For Whom Did Christ Die?" Many Christians answer the question with these Scriptures: (Failing, 1978, pp.1-3) JOH 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (NIV) We believe that "whoever" means "any person, and ...that any person can believe, by the assisting Spirit of God." (Failing, 1978, pp.1-3) 1Timothy 2:3-4 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, (4) who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. (NIV) 2PE 3:9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. (NIV) REV 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life. (NIV) (Matthew 28:19-20 NIV) Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, (20) and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

Two Aspects in the Design of Christ's Atonement
Journal for Baptist Theology and Ministry Vol. 2 No. 2 (Fall 2004): 85-98 Two Aspects in the Design of Christ’s Atonement Wayne S. Hansen Associate Professor of Theology Bethel Seminary of the East 1601 N. Limekiln Pike Dresher, Pennsylvania 19025 For well over three and a half centuries Christians have been divided over one aspect of Christ’s atonement. This topic has served to separate believer from believer, often with great animosity. The cleavage is so great that it has divided schools, denominational institutions, mission agencies, and local churches. Ironically, it has been labeled as a “non-essential” by at least one side in the debate. Yet the implications for this topic are significant for one’s approach to the church, evangelism, confidence in the sovereignty of God, and especially, Christology. The topic I am alluding to is limited atonement, to use its more recognized label. Some have preferred the term “definite atonement” or “particular redemption” to emphasize the positive focus of the doctrine and eliminate any suspicion of the value of Christ’s work. But whichever term is used the basic question remains. “Did God intend to save only the elect in the death of Christ or provide salvation for all?” Passionate defenses on each side of the issue have been offered. Frequently, tensions are so strong on this issue that one side does not hear what the other is saying. Each feels justified in her/his view and often refuses to look at the other’s argument. Not a few have stated that both are true and then dismissed the subject without seeing the inconsistency of their logic.

Calvinism and Arminianism Are Tw
K-Group week 3 Question: "Calvinism vs. Arminianism - which view is correct?" Answer: Calvinism and Arminianism are two systems of theology that attempt to explain the relationship between God's sovereignty and man's responsibility in the matter of salvation. Calvinism is named for John Calvin, a French theologian who lived from 1509-1564. Arminianism is named for Jacobus Arminius, a Dutch theologian who lived from 1560-1609. Both systems can be summarized with five points. Calvinism holds to the total depravity of man while Arminianism holds to partial depravity. Calvinism’s doctrine of total depravity states that every aspect of humanity is corrupted by sin; therefore, human beings are unable to come to God on their own accord. Partial depravity states that every aspect of humanity is tainted by sin, but not to the extent that human beings are unable to place faith in God of their own accord. Note: classical Arminianism rejects “partial depravity” and holds a view very close to Calvinistic “total depravity” (although the extent and meaning of that depravity are debated in Arminian circles). In general, Arminians believe there is an “intermediate” state between total depravity and salvation. In this state, made possible by prevenient grace, the sinner is being drawn to Christ and has the God-given ability to choose salvation. Calvinism includes the belief that election is unconditional, while Arminianism believes in conditional election. Unconditional election is the view that God elects individuals to salvation based entirely on His will, not on anything inherently worthy in the individual. Conditional election states that God elects individuals to salvation based on His foreknowledge of who will believe in Christ unto salvation, thereby on the condition that the individual chooses God.

This chart compares the 5 points of Calvinism with the 5 points of Arminianism. Many Evangelical Christians don’t totally agree with either side but believe in a mixture of the two— agreeing with some points of Calvinism and some of Arminianism.

Theology 1.11
Calvinism and Arminianism Calvinism and Arminianism are two systems of theology that attempt to explain the relationship between God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility in the matter of salvation. Calvinism is named for John Calvin, a French theologian who lived from 1509-1564. Arminianism is named for Jacobus Arminius, a Dutch theologian who lived from 1560-1609. Both systems can be summarized with five points. The Calvinists didn’t come up with five points to start with. The Calvinists wrote their vision of what salvation looks like and how it happens under God’s sovereignty. When the Arminians read it, they said, “These are five places we don’t agree.” That is where we got these five points. 1. Depravity • Calvinism’s doctrine of total depravity states that every aspect of humanity is corrupted by sin; therefore, human beings are so depraved and rebellious that they are unable to trust God and come to Him on their own accord without God’s special work of grace to change their hearts. • Arminians say, with regard to depravity, that people are depraved and corrupt, but they are able to provide the decisive impulse to trust God with the general divine assistance that God gives to everybody. Although some refer to this as “partial depravity”, classical Arminianism rejects “partial depravity” and holds a view very close to Calvinistic “total depravity” (although the extent and meaning of that depravity are debated in Arminian circles). 2. Election • Calvinism includes the belief that election is unconditional. It says that we are chosen. God chooses unconditionally whom he will mercifully bring to faith and whom he will justly leave in their rebellion.

The Biblical Extent of the Atonement IV. Problems with and Unlimited View of the Atonement V. Problems with a Limited View of the Atonement Conclusion Scripture Index Introduction Whether Christ died for all men or for only those who will believe has been an issue much debated since the days of the Reformation. Prior to that time much was written about the atonement but very little about its extent. Some older writers insist, however, that the church from its earliest ages was of the opinion that Christ died for all. Even Augustine, strict predestinarian though he was, maintained that Christ gave Himself a ransom for all by providing for their salvation, thus removing an impediment which would otherwise have proved fatal.1 There are scattered indications in the writings of some of the early fathers which certainly imply their belief in an unlimited atonement. Of course, it must be remembered that their first concern was not with the extent of the atonement but with the person of Christ and with the nature of His work on the cross.

IGNITE 2 0 1 7 WORKBOOK Calvinism (Day One) DAY ONE Calvinism vs. Arminianism (Day Two) (Adapted from Dr. Tim Beougher, Ph.D.) 1. WHY STUDY ARMINIANISM AND CALVINISM? a. Significant regarding church history b. Your interpretive lens needs to be accurate c. The issues raised by Arminianism and Calvinism relate to eternal salvation (key questions!) 2. HOW SHOULD ONE APPROACH THIS ISSUE? a. Focus: “What does the Bible teach?” b. Attitude: humility and charity (unfortunately a lot of mean-spirited attacks on both sides of the issue) 3. BACKGROUND: a. Arminians submitted 5 points to the Church of Holland in 1610. b. Synod of Dort in 1619 responded with the 5 points of Calvinism (TULIP) TOTAL DEPRAVITY [Radical Corruption] 1. Key Question: How great is the effect of the Fall? Do we have “free will” to accept or reject Christ? 2. Scriptural References (Calvinism) a. Eph. 2:1-3; Rom. 3:1-23 (esp. 9-11); John 6:44; Jer. 17:9 b. Ephesians 2: 1 -- “And you were dead in your trespasses and sins . .” c. Total (not ABSOLUTE) depravity [radical corruption] -- we are not as bad as we can be Total inability -- the sinner cannot convert himself d. The emphasis is not on Physical inability but Moral inability; Mankind “can” believe but he “won’t” believe. LIMITED/Unlimited ATONEMENT [Definite Atonement] (For whom did Christ die?) 1. Some argue that Christ died only for the elect, while others emphasize that the death of Christ was universal -- He died for everyone even though not everyone will be saved.

Foundations of Systematic Theology Systematic Foundations Of
ST408 Foundations of Systematic Theology LESSON 11 of 24 Christology: The Work of Christ John M. Frame, D.D. Experience: Professor of systematic theology at Reformed Theological Seminary In lesson 10, we asked about the person of Christ. What kind of person Jesus is? We saw that He is both true God and true man— two distinct natures in one person. In this lesson, we will ask about the work of Christ. What does Jesus do for us? I’ll be talking about His work in terms of His offices. Just as some people are presidents or mayors or sergeants or CEOs or certified public accountants, so Jesus holds certain offices. And what He does, His actions, carry out the duties of those offices. What are those offices? Well as we’ve seen, Jesus is the Messiah, the Anointed One. That idea sends us back to the Old Testament where three offices of people were anointed with oil: prophets, priests, and kings. When the Messiah comes—the Anointed One, par excellence—He holds all three of these offices and indeed fulfills them. He is the ultimate prophet, the ultimate priest, and the ultimate king. You may recall the threefold concept of lordship that I shared with you in lesson one. These three offices fit right in with that. As prophet, Jesus displays the lordship attribute of authority. As priest, the lordship attribute of presence, and as king, the lordship attribute of control. Or in terms of our distinctions in lesson six, the prophet represents the normative perspective; the priest, the existential; and the king, the situational.
