Calvinism’s ORIGIN: Is Dordt Still RELEVANT? with Guest ‪@IdolKiller‬

Eric and Drew, along with guest Warren McGrew of ‪@IdolKiller‬ examine the Canons of Dort, addressing common Calvinist doctrines and their implications. The discussion begins by exploring the purpose and historical context of the Synod of Dort, which aimed to counter Arminianism and establish Reformed doctrine. The hosts argue that the Calvinist perspective, especially the doctrine of double predestination, lacks biblical support and fails to address their criticisms logically. Throughout the episode, they highlight how the Canons of Dort respond to objections not with substantive arguments but by dismissing dissenters as Pelagians or by asserting divine authority without further explanation. The hosts contend that this approach leads to a form of spiritual elitism, where intellectual assent to doctrine is equated with holiness. They emphasize the need for open, scripture-based discussions and critique the tendency of some Calvinists to avoid engaging with their arguments directly.
