Understanding Christianity

An Interaction with Dr. Leighton Flowers on Corporate Election

Calvinists believe in individual unconditional election based on God's good pleasure alone. Arminians believe in individual election based on foreseen faith. Traditionalist Southern Baptists believe neither--they hold to the corporate view of election. Dr. Sean Cole traces the history of this fairly new doctrine in church history and presents a hypothesis that Karl Barth's influence helped shape the view of corporate eleciton within the last 60 years.
