CALVINISTS Online: Misunderstanding ON PURPOSE

Provisionist Perspective with Eric and Drew Season 5 Episode 14

Eric and Drew tackle the topic of Calvinists misunderstanding arguments on purpose. They explore how Calvinists often misinterpret or intentionally avoid engaging with key points about free will, determinism, and the nature of God's sovereignty. The episode features detailed discussions and examples, including a conversation with Josiah Huggins, highlighting the challenges in communicating these theological perspectives. They examine biblical texts, such as Ezekiel 36:26 and the conversion of Paul on the Damascus Road, to demonstrate how God's influence and persuasion work without deterministic control. Eric and Drew also respond to common criticisms and accusations, offering a robust defense of their views on Ephesians and corporate election. Their goal is to foster sincere dialogue and encourage deeper understanding between differing theological positions.
