CALVINISM

In these two courses you will study Calvinism and the three subjects most intimately
involved with that doctrine.  These will be placed in their proper biblical perspective.

CALVINISM I.

John Calvin

In this first course on Calvinism you will study the doctrine from the Scriptures; not from the literature, arguments, and misrepresentations, of the Calvinist.  (1 credit)

"One of the most disruptive doctrines that has destroyed whole denominations, starved more missionaries off the field and has sent more sinners to hell, is the wrong stress on the beautiful Doctrine of Election."  (Dr. James Wilkins)

CALVINISM II.

Foreknowledge
Election
Predestination

In this second course in the Calvinism series you will study the 3 main biblical precepts most closely associated with Calvinism.  (1 credit)

"The Bible was written for the common man. The Doctrines of Foreknowledge, Election, and Predestination are no more complex and difficult to understand than the other precious doctrines of the Bible. The devil has worked harder to distort and confuse in these areas because he knows that if they are clearly understood they will produce the zeal, separation from the world, and dedication that was demonstrated by the first generation of believers."  (Dr. James Wilkins)
