Defending a Modified Form of Calvinism: Unashamedly Embracing the Full Counsel of God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798893451566)

This isn't just another book on Calvinism. It attempts to answer the toughest objections against it. This has led the author to embrace a slightly altered form of the Reformed doctrines of grace. Though not widely accepted, this may be the most consistent way to understand the totality of Scripture, rather than tolerating the traditional stalemate of the opposing sides holding on to their favorite verses and just speaking past each other. Since both Arminians and Calvinists have their weaknesses, perhaps there is a third position that can accept all texts and no longer ignore the passages that seem most problematic, allowing one to defend Scripture as a consistent whole, and not compromising any truth just to uphold a tradition. There is no doubt that this perspective is a Calvinistic one, but it slightly deviates from the traditional understanding of the Reformed distinctives. If you'd like to see how, explore at your own risk!
