Where did the Calvinist/Arminian divide originate? In this video, we go through the history of how it happened. We will consider the followers of John Calvin and how they disagreed with the followers of Jacob Arminius, which led to the Synod of Dort and the resulting canons.
The followers of Arminius presented five negative articles and five positive articles.
In the end, the States General of the Netherlands ruled in favor of the followers of John Calvin, and produced the Canons of Dort, which included "Five Heads of Doctrine."
The Five Heads of Doctrine:
• Of Divine Predestination
• Of the Death of Christ and the Redemption of Men Thereby
• Of the Corruption of Man
• Of Man’s Conversion to God
• Of the Perseverance of the Saints
The beliefs in the Five Heads eventually became known as the acrostic TULIP.
Total Depravity
Unconditional Election
Limited Atonement
Irresistible Grace
Perseverance of the Saints
The Arminians and Calvinists, of course, never reconciled and the divide exists today.
Of course, there is a third view, which I (with somewhat of a bias) label "biblical salvation."
