Rebel Yell

First, we talked about Indoctrinated Calvinists.


Now, it is time to talk about the second major category of Calvinists: the Rebel Calvinist.

The historical orthodox Christian position is that man has the free will to choose God, and is not predestined for salvation. This is because the Bible teaches this position, and no verse in the Bible ever indicates who is predestined, but rather, what God has predestined for those that seek Him.

Some people in life are rebels. You say red, they say green. You go right, they go left. They actually derive personal pleasure and a sense of well-being from bucking the norm. Even if the norm is reality. One might say especially if the norm is reality.

Many liberals fall into this category, and that's why I think Calvinism is to the church what liberalism is to mainstream America. It is a set if people who simply derive pleasure from what they think is "bucking the system" even though said "bucking" is really shunning reality.

For this reason, I shall continue to refer to Calvinists as the liberals of the church.
