A Universal Message and a Divine Application

Description

Exploring the common ground and sharp distinction between Arminianism and Calvinism

Often, the conviction of God’s universal love and provision for all is set up against His particular love for His people. Or, His particular love for His people is set up against His universal love and provision for all. What if both are biblically true without any contradiction or difficulty whatsoever?

In A Universal Message and a Divine Application, we will see that both convictions are, indeed, biblically true, whereby we should never undermine or set up the one against the other. Instead, in order to be faithful to God’s word, we should hold to both without any objection or reluctance.

We will look at one particular passage that communicates six biblical truths regarding Arminianism and Calvinism. Five out of the six truths are essentially the same. The sixth one draws a sharp line between them. Yet, that sharp line doesn’t diminish or undermine the biblical truth of God’s universal love and provision for all.

If you’ve been wondering about Arminianism and Calvinism, or would like to dive deeper into the issues than the mere surface, this book will help you come to grips with this unending controversy.

This is the first book of a four-part series, addressing the never-ending controversy between the bondage of the will versus the freedom of the will, also known as Calvinism versus Arminianism, whereby the following order is strongly recommended:
