To an English guy who sees it as his duty to warn everybody about Calvinism on every video site on the internet


Calvinism is merely a nickname for apostolic biblical doctrine, un-watered-down, un-negotiated down to the demands of fallen man.

It is five solas doctrine. Classical Protestant doctrine derived from the Bible alone.

It is rare to see truth gaining a voice in the world, and when it does the world girds its loins and goes on the attack. Calvinism is experiencing a current revival of sorts, so the world will push back as usual.

God always has His remnant. His remnant know the voice of the Shepherd, the pure and whole, received, Word of God, and His remnant know his doctrine, derived solely from the Word of God.

If you are man-centered rather than God-centered of course Calvinism (apostolic biblical doctrine) is foolish and crazy and 'wrong'. If you are more just and good than God Himself then of course you will have criticisms of a God that is sovereign in creation, providence, *and grace.*

A note: modern Calvinist (Reformed) academics tend to be very different from Reformation era Calvinists (I'm not speaking of the Calvin vs. the Calvinists canard either). Calvin was a barefoot mystic compared to most Reformed/Calvinist academics today.
