Q

Calvinism and Arminianism Background and Precursors

A

prelimenary development that lead up to the debate in the 16th & 17th century.. goes all the way back to the early church this debate) revived in the reformation

60
Q

Four Ideas Pelagius Proposed

A
  1. God’s law is righteous.
  2. God is always just in judging people.
  3. Freedom is the only way that God can hold us accountable .. we must have freedom to obey God or not for God to be just & for us to be responsible for our actions
  4. God has granted us this by our nature this libertarian freedom. We have freedom by nature to by holy or not. We are morally accountable for what we do & God can judge us
61
Q

(354-430) - most prominent theologian of the early church, influenced reformers later, advocating his views, many followers, wrote against pelagius

A

Augustine

62
Q

Four Points Augustine Had

A
  1. Agreed that the law is righteous.
  2. Agreed that God is just.
  3. Differ dramatically! Pelagius says we have freedom. Augustine says because of Adams sin we are born into this world sinful by nature. We cannot help but go against the will of God. Be violators of that good and perfect law.
  4. How can we obey? ONLY BY GRACE
    - We all inherent Adam’s sin, but grace gives us the ability to please God and obey him.
63
Q

The Debate between Nature & Grace

A
  • we can obey by nature - P

* we can obey by grace - A

64
Q

A - grace is neccesary for any to obey - unconditional election - God must

A

choose whom grace was given because they are freed up to believe

65
Q

(418) tried to judicature between P vs. A. P called a heretic. Not affected by the sin of Adam, accept he was just a bad influence. Augustine view was upheld.
Election did not sit well with them.

A

Council of Carthage

66
Q
  • grace and nature view
  • called this in the Lutheran conduct, middle of the road position that argued that A is partly right and P is partly right, -subject to sin (A), (P) we have the ability to obey in our nature.. sin weakens our ability to do good, difficult to obey, grace comes to assist a weak will
  • became a dominant view
  • middle position
A

Semi-Pelagian Alternative

67
Q

(1483-1546) - never intended to become the radical reformer that he was, when he encountered so much opposition from the catholic church, he presented his own views, his views from scripture, Luther separated from catholicism, and a number of catholic positions

  • justification by faith alone by grace alone
  • how are we able to obey God?
A

Martin Luther

68
Q

freedom of the will, close to P, we can by nature with some assistance of grace and nature do what we need to do
-you are capable if you just do it, hear and obey what God has said

A

Arasmus

69
Q
  • Lutheran heard Aramus’s crap theology and got so upset. because he is due the glory alone
  • we in our sin can do nothing but sin in our own ability
A

-the bondage of the will

70
Q

-Luther reaffirmed

A

Augustine

71
Q

1509-1564) - primary reformation figure, be called the Augustinian view, Calvin followers countinuted to teach this,
-because of sin that came to us through Adam, we are born sinners

A

John Calvin

72
Q

-we are sinners because we sin -

A

Pleagius

73
Q

we sin because were sinners

A

Augustine

74
Q

Calvin says.. understand unconditional election and irresistible grace.. connected to

A

total depravity.

75
Q

Calvin saw the need for these 4 doctrines

A
  1. Total Depravity
  2. Unconditional Election
  3. Irresistible Grace
  4. Perserverance of the Saints
    - all flow from total depravity
76
Q

Where does Jacob Arminius (1560-1609) differ from Calvin.. though he studied under Calvin’s friend (Basea in Genevea)

A

differed: whether we all (all people) have the ability to believe/ be saved or is this only for the elect

77
Q

the next decade Arminius’ followers - they remonstrated against the calvinist

A

became called Remonstrance

78
Q

Arminius proposed that

A

the grace that God gives to sinners that enables them to believe in Christ is prevenient grace - latin term that refer to grace that comes before or arrises before hand/ a grace that comes before saving faith that makes it possible to believe in Christ or not… all people were given prevenient grace…

79
Q

possible to believe or not, to trust in Christ or not

A

prevenient grace

80
Q

Calvinism (TULIP - 5 Points)

A
Total Depravity
Unconditional Election
Limited Atonement
Irresistible Grace
Perseverance of the Saints
81
Q

all people because of the sin of Adam are rendered unable to do what is pleasing to God / all people are under bondage to sin / no matter what they do they sin in the matter.. although you being evil give good gifts to your children.. good things are different than pleasing to God. every act we do before God is sinful (ex. hit an old lady vs. help an old lady.. if the motive is off.. if the motive is not for God to get all the glory then it is a sin) we are sinners by nature and cannot do anything other than that

A

Total Depravity

82
Q

God looks at this mass of people and see them as sinner and chooses some that he will save; Eph 1:4, God elects people unconditionally

A

Unconditional Election

83
Q

just as God elected for some to be saved Jesus paid for the elect only (5 pointers.. believe this.. if you are a 4 pointer you do not believe in limited atonement) John 10, Ephesians 5, Calvinists have differed on this.

A

Limited Atonement

84
Q

those whom God elected, they cannot resist God’s grace

-not kicking an screaming, they can only come because they were chosen

A

Irresistible Grace

85
Q

saving faith is a living faith - faith that continues in the life and heart of a truly saved person.. a mark of a truly saved person perseverance.. only because God’s perseveres do we

A

Perseverance of the Saints

86
Q

Remonstrance (Arminians) 5 Points

A
  1. Total Depravity- agrees with point number 1.. a 1 point calvinist
  2. Conditional Election - elects those whom God knows will in the future accept him
  3. Unlimited Atonement- God died for the sins of the world
  4. Re-sistable Grace - grace in which the affects of sin are rendered nullified to the exstint that we can believe or not believe // you can choose.. rendered all able to believe in God or not … all have this grace.. still sovereign.. prevenient grace is not in scripture. Irresistible Grace is taught in scripture.. the arminian view not script
  5. Perseverance yes, but you can loose your salvation… possible for a person to be a true believer and yet forfeit the salvation that he or she had early, you can loose your salvation
87
Q

Covenant Theology

A
  1. Covenant of Works with Adam

2. Covenant of Grace (Gen 3-Rev 22) logical, not plan a & b

88
Q

Covenant Hermeneutic

A

same purpose of God with the same people of God - God intends to save His elect, bring in His Kingdom, exhibit his power over sin and do so on behalf of his people -spans OT & NT… continuity between the testaments.. hand and hand. same thing, same purpose.. Plan and design versions of the same thing. continuity

89
Q

Israel and the Church in Covenant Theology

A

continuity seen - see the differences between here and dispensationalism

  • one purpose. one God. one plan. one covenant of grace that brings continuity between testaments
  • see Israel as the people of God.. two different names of the same thing..
  • Israel = the early church, the called out people of God
  • The Church = the new Israel
90
Q

Dispensationalism

A

he revelation of God in scripture that it is being taken int progressive installments (Adam, Abraham) // we ought to see the Bible as all of the revelations God has given throughout time.. revelation comes in a progressive form that new revelation is coming and can change what has happened in past revelations // trying to understand God’s working in different period of time // God works at different ways at different times with his people because different revelations are shared at different times // bit by bit getting of information and you can get more info in the future that could change what we have now..

91
Q

-continuity is a no go for dispensationalism

A

God works in different ways at different times because new revelation has been give

92
Q

A

no more goat and bull sacrifices

93
Q

A

A

Renea Descartes - french philosophy/scientist 1596-1650

99
Q

radical imperiliasm, only believe those things with which that we see

A

David Hume

100
Q

part of what Decartes argued for is correct (reason/ function/rationalist/determine with my mind what is right) but in part Hume is right as well (since data/experience that shapes the way we think about things, causation is a category in our mind

A

-Imeanuel Kant 1723-1804 -

101
Q

Kant’s Realms

A
  • Noumenla Realm - the realm in the thing in its itself, that it is
  • Phenomenul Realm - our experiences, intuitions of space and time are in our mind / all we can know is the phenomenal experience in what we see, we can not fully know the noumenal realm (what the thing in itself is)
102
Q
  • father of modern liberalism, gave rise in theology to liberalism
  • studied under Kant
  • adopted the noumela view with theology
  • we can know that it is (there is a God… religion experience - phenomenal)
  • what can we know about God objectively.. nothing he says - nominal-we can only know God as we experience Him
  • this becomes our own since of what God must be
A

Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834)

103
Q

the theological imagination constructing the concept of God

  • must use our imagination to come up with God is, all we can do is work with our imagination to see how we would prefer God to be
  • Shleiermacher turned theology on his head
  • previously theology was about knowing God for who he is
  • we know God as he is
  • theology become anthropology = humans discovering making God whoever they want him to be
A

Gordon Kaufaam

104
