How Arminianism “Brought Out of Hell the Pelagian Error” & Loving the Savior’s True Cross-Work – Rev. Hines Podcast

Passages: John 6:37-39; Romans 8:28-31; John 15; John 17; Ephesians 1:7ff.

From the Synod of Dort’s “Synodical Letter”:

“The Synod has declared that the Remonstrants have brought out of hell the Pelagian error, which teaches that man can, by his own strength, either resist or cooperate with the divine grace.”

“A spillover from Calvinism into Arminianism has occurred in recent decades. Thus many Arminians whose theology is not very precise say that Christ paid the penalty for our sins. Yet such a view is foreign to Arminianism.… Arminians teach that what Christ did he did for every person; therefore, what he did could not have been to pay the penalty for sin, since no one would then ever go into eternal perdition.” – J. Kenneth Grider (Arminian theologian)
