Challenge Calvinism with a clear, historical refutation that is rooted in Scripture and Anglican tradition.
This work presents a focused examination of Calvinist doctrines—original sin, grace, regeneration, justification, and universal redemption—alongside a measured defense of Anglican formularies. It argues that Calvinism, when misapplied, can threaten church unity and true Christianity. The author supports his case with a historical study of English church practice, and with selections from early Christian writers to show long-standing disagreement with Calvinist tenets.
Readers will encounter a concise history of how English reformers and church leaders approached these topics, and how the Prayer Book, Articles, and Homilies are presented as Scriptural and historically grounded. The text also discusses how the church’s public worship and governance responded to shifting doctrinal currents over time.
- An accessible overview of contested topics in Protestant theology from a specific historical perspective
- Context on how English reformers protected church unity and public worship
- Quoted passages from early church fathers to illustrate ongoing debates
- Clear reasoning about how grace, free will, and salvation are understood in this tradition
Ideal for readers of theology, church history, and Anglican studies who seek a thoughtful, historically grounded critique of Calvinist claims.
