Puritan Board Freshman
I've asked my Reformed friends this before, and they have said that the idea of Grace is radical. It dismantles man-centered power structures.
But I'd like to ask you all your perspectives.
I'm reading up on my religious heritage, and again and again I read about Calvinist "purges" -- meaning they kicked out people who were deemed Calvinistic.
What's the fear? I've always assumed that it's because they perceive Calvinism to be counter to evangelism (I know that's not true). But is there more? It's got to be more than just disagreement. There's some underlying fear. . . .
Thots?
