410 years ago, on this date, October
19, 1609, the founder of Arminianism, Jacobus Arminius, died at his house at
the Pieterskerkhof. He was buried in the Pieterskerk at Leiden, where a memorial stone
on his behalf was placed in 1934. As a
former Arminian who now is a Calvinist, I will present this video on why I disagree
with Arminianism.

Free will is added to the Bible
Arminianism: A
False Gospel
Proponents of
Arminianism teach contra-causal free will, and that salvation is a condition of
foreseen faith or disbelief, and an atonement theory that made salvation merely
possible—but not actual for anyone. This is why Arminianism is a false gospel.
Sadly, there are a lot of cowardly Calvinists that will not excoriate the cheap
grace, semi-pelagian lies of Arminianism.
Take some time
to review some excerpts from the Canons of Dort, to see how Arminianism should
be denounced:
- For they
“deceive” the simple and plainly “contradict Holy Scripture…”
- For this is
an “invention of the human mind,” “devised apart from the Scriptures,” which
“distorts the teaching” concerning election and breaks up this golden chain of
salvation…
- For by this
“pernicious error” the good pleasure of God and the merit of Christ are robbed
of their effectiveness and people are drawn away, by “unprofitable inquiries…”
- For this
“smacks of Pelagius,” and it clearly calls into question the words of the
apostle…
- By this
“gross error” they make God changeable, destroy the comfort of the godly
concerning the steadfastness of their election, and “contradict the Holy
Scriptures…”
- This is a
“novel idea” and an “error and has the effect of elevating the power of free
choice…”

Holmberg and others drive this point through.

“If we sum up the evidence that has been given, we shall find its amount to be,
that Arminianism came from the Church of Rome, and leads back again to the pit
where it was digged.” - Augustus Toplady
