Puritan Board Freshman
I have been surfing the net for resources on this, as that wonderful, "infallible" resource called WikiPedia says that Arminianism is one of the schools of Protestant thought that accepts total depravity. This peaked my curiosity.
Coming from a "synergistic" denomination, I grew up believing in prevenient grace that wooed all and apart from this grace, well, we were totally inable to come to Christ.
So, I guess the question is, if we ignore the means of Grace as stated by each camp, can we truly say that historical Arminianism, as opposed to Semi-Pelagianism, believes in total depravity?
