Anti-Calvinism

“Connect316 [is] a coalition of Southern Baptists who advocate what they call a “traditionalist” understanding of the doctrine of salvation and disagree with some points of so-called ‘New Calvinism’ ”

Doug Wilson: A Calvinist explains the doctrines he holds, at the end of which explanation, his Arminian friend exclaims, “I could never worship a God like that!” The normal Calvinist response is that “you really ought to be willing to worship a God like that,” but the response ought rather to be “you do in fact already worship a God like that.”

A classical Arminian would never deny that Adam’s sin resulted in the incapacitation of any person’s free will. Classical Arminianism (as I have demonstrated in Arminian Theology: Myths and Realities) strongly affirms the bondage of the will to sin before and apart from prevenient grace’s liberating work.Now, perhaps this is the point of the statement’s mention of “the Holy Spirit’s drawing through the Gospel.” But that, too, can be interpreted in a semi-Pelagian way.
