This Week in Calvinism - April 29, 2016

  • Tracey Rowland sees the potential for a Catholic revival in Scotland: "It can't be all that difficult to compete with liberal Calvinism and garden-variety New Age paganism when one has the full treasury of a sacramental Catholicism..."

  • Arminian William Birch lists five reasons why New Calvinism is worth rejecting.

  • Carol Howard Merritt, a feminist who embraces "marriage equality," proudly dons Calvin's mantle, despite being against everything he stood for.

  • Dr. Jeff Hagan offers a concise summary of Arminianism and Calvinism.

  • "But the horror genre also shows us how Puritan Calvinism was intimately entwined with witchy folktales," writes Kathryn Reklis, in her review of the film The Witch. "The fear of witches went hand in hand with the Calvinist God whose inscrutable will predestined some to hell."

  • Dr. Vern Charette ponders God's goodness in light of what many Calvinists would consider a false assurance of salvation.
