Here is a great interview of Voddie where he talks further about what I call the fallacy of systematic racism in America.

Thanks for posting those. Excellent points made by Dr. Baucham, in a very non-confrontational way.
Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.

My pleasure. I really enjoy his sermons. His love for his fellow man and his passion for sharing Christ is very obvious.Originally Posted by 26 Inf
I found his reasoning for going to Oxford for his doctorate very interesting and revealing.

Calvinism. The belief that God predestined a minority of individuals to go to heaven before He created the world and the rest to go to hell.
I don't subscribe to this belief.

Calvinist doctrine:
Total Depravity: Human beings are completely sinful and depraved and incapable of asking for redemption.
Unconditional Election: God predestined all who will be saved and all who will be condemned; basically, nobody "chooses" to become a Christian or not to be a Christian.
Limited Atonement: Jesus didn't come to save everybody, he only came to save the predestined.
Irristable Grace: If you were predestined, once God calls you, you will inevitably believe and follow Him.
Preservation of Saints: Nothing can make the predestined lose their salvation. Anybody who denounces their faith is determined to have never truly believed in the first place.
Calvinism is central to Presbyterian theology, but it's also taught in congregational churches and some small baptist denominations. Most other denominations either reject Calvinism outright, or take Calvin's theories as one of many commentaries on Protestant theology and nothing more.
I'm not a Calvinist and I have serious issues with the doctrine taken as a whole. I also take issue with the fact that a lot of Presbyterian churches and thinkers tend to be anti-Israel and anti-Judaism. Not antisemitic; they don't hate Jews, but they do believe that God has rejected Israel and that the church is the "new Israel." Basically, the Jews have no further role to play in God's plan. My late Presbyterian granddad felt this way.
While I do believe that there are things that are destined to happen, and God does call some more persistently than others, I believe the call for salvation is universal. I also don't believe in fate-by-another-name; that is, that everything, good and bad, that happens, God wrote in the timeline before he create the world, and everything we do was fated to happen.

Actually my church and many Reformed churches believe much much more than a minority will be saved.
