Purchase options and add-ons

Does God love everyone? When Jesus died on the cross at Calvary, did he die for the sins of the elect only or for the sins of the whole world? Can anyone respond in faith to the gospel message? Or is the act of believing a gift of God only given to a subset of humanity called the elect so that the rest of humanity is unable to believe and destined to spend eternity apart from God? What does the term elect mean in the New Testament? These are fundamental questions about the God of the Bible and the salvation He provides in Jesus Christ. This book invites you to sit as an unbiased juror and consider the traditional principles of TULIP Calvinism as explained by the leading Calvinists in their own words, then to weigh their proffered Scriptural evidence to make your own determination. This book will address exegetically all of the most commonly cited proof texts for Calvinism, with a thorough consideration of the “pillar” passages like John 6:44, Romans 3 and 9, and Ephesians 1:4. This book will defend a middle ground position (called NULIF – “new life”) between TULIP Calvinism and Arminianism and demonstrate that you can tell people with confidence that God loves them, Jesus died for their sins, and they can be saved by trusting Christ for the forgiveness of their sins based on his finished work at Calvary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid refutation of what is essentially a mainstream cult
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2022

If the new atheists, such as Dawkins and Harris understood the basic tenets of limited atonement as represented by Calvinism they would have a real basis for not believing the Bible or in God. Calvinism, as such, makes God into a worse monster than the Satan, creating human beings with absolutely no chance of salvation, unless chosen for no particular reason.

Extensive, well-reasoned exposition of all key passages commonly cited to support Reformed Theology. Places primary emphasis on exposition in context, vs. others who start with a system and tend to impose it onto passages.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not convinced from this argumentation
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2020
Poorly argued. Strawmen are constructed and rhetoric is used as a typical lawyer would use. There is a lack of understanding of the historical aspect for TULIP from the Synods of Dort. Also some of the exegesis is not solid. For example the wrath referred to in Romans 9 is absolutely the final eschatological wrath sent in final judgement. Paul refers to the Jews being cut off which is that very descriptor and is not going back to Chapter 1 as the author claims but Chapter 2 verse 5 and 9:3 and 29. Many verses are taken out of their context, the very thing he claims Calvinists do. Remember his mentors had very specific agendas in their hermeneutics. Please r
ead Naselli' s No Quick Fix. Passages from 1 Jn. also not properly exegeted. Not convinced at all.

The author turns over and refutes every scripture Calvinists’ use to support TULIP and decrees. Most thorough, concise and clearly written book I’ve read on the Calvinist Doctrine of Election.
