A Single Statement by Paul Refutes Universal Salvation
There are some people, including some Christians, who believe in universal salvation. This is the belief that everyone who dies will end up in Heaven. I know one person who takes this to the extreme and includes Satan and his whole army of demons. This same person hangs everything on one verse, and that’s Colossians 1:20. […]

Arminian CE vs. Calvinist CE (OT Pattern) — [4 of 4]
Four, Arminian Corporate Election (CE) falls short in its understanding of the connection between Old Testament Israel and New Testament Israel, which results in an erroneous position on CE. First let me say again that I am a strong proponent of Fulfillment Theology, which is a central teaching of Covenant Theology, Baptist Covenant Theology and New Covenant […]

While it acknowledges that Jesus was chosen to be both the Corporate Head of the Church and its Savior, it fails to factor-in His election […]
Arminian CE vs. Calvinist CE (Corp & Indiv) — [1 of 4]
(Please read Introduction first) Four Major Flaws of Arminian Corporate Election (CE) I have a lot of respect for the Arminian view of CE. It presents a scholarly and fairly plausible interpretation of the doctrine of election. There are certain aspects to that position that I agree with. I think it has the right basic idea, […]
Arminian Corporate Election VS. Calvinist Corporate Election – [Introduction]
Introduction Union and Identification vs. Actual Sovereign Choice Corporate Election (CE) is normally associated with Arminian theology. However, it can be argued that CE is fundamentally a Calvinist position on the doctrine of election — which I shall do in this study. Central debate: Is election merely one of union and identification? Or is […]
