Season 3 of Wisdom from Above is focusing on Distinctions Worth Knowing. This episode will distinguish between what John Calvin taught and what the Bible teaches. Calvinism has five main points. They are most often remembered by the acronym TULIP. T = Total Inability. U = Unconditional Election. L = Limited Atonement. I = Irresistible Grace. P = Perseverance of the Saints. These points are all very logical, but the critical question is this, "Are they Biblical?" If we truly want to go beyond the reasoning of men to the revelation of God, we must search the Scriptures. In this episode we summarize the Calvinistic teaching of these five points and then we turn to the Bible to see what it says about these five points. Calvinism is a clear presentation of intellectual logic, but it is not a clear presentation of Biblical truth. There are many very straightforward passages of Scripture that indicate we should reject all five points of Calvinism. Join us as we investigate the distinction between Calvinism and Biblicism.
