Remixed Calvinism

It sometimes feels like Calvinists first invoke the five points, then apologize for invoking the five points, then explain how the five points don’t really mean what they seem to mean and aren’t really saying what they seem to be saying. This can’t possibly be the best way to introduce people to what we believe.
Funny but true. Greg Forster offers another version of TULIP which references the three persons of God and the mechanism of salvation:

  • State of man before salvation: wholly defiled
  • Work of the Father in salvation: unconditional choice
  • Work of the Son in salvation: personal salvation
  • Work of the Spirit in salvation: supernatural transformation
  • State of man after salvation: in faith, perseverance
Das cool.
