by Gordon Lunsford (Author)
This book is a critique of 5 point Calvinism. How does the TULIP doctrine of Calvinism stand up to the Scriptures and to the teaching of the early Church fathers. It contains numerous quotations from both the Scriptures and the writings of the Church leaders of the first three centuries of the Christian Church. Each point of Calvinism is examined to see if they can be supported by the Bible and if the early Church taught any of these doctrines.
