Consequences of Calvinism … Jonathan Leeman writes to pastors, but the implications surely include any Christian who embraces the Reformed Doctrines of Grace sometimes called Calvinism. He writes: “Many things in a new convert’s life may remain the same. Sin will continue. Yet Calvinists expect that, amidst the weeds, we’ll always see new, you-can’t-miss-them flowers. God has saved the person, and the Spirit is not weak. His work is not meager. As such, Calvinism leaves less room for nominal Christianity, easy-believism, ‘carnal Christianity,’ Jesus-is-Savior-but-not-Lord. It doesn’t say that Christians will always look morally better than non-Christians. It says people will be changed by becoming Christians. God changes them. They’ll look better than they used to. Even the thief on the cross rebuked the other thief.” You can read the rest HERE.
