The Five Points of Calvinism (often remembered through the acronym T U L I P)

1. Total depravity. Man is naturally unable to exercise free will, since through Adam's fall he has suffered hereditary corruption. 2. Unconditional election. Election manifests itself through God's wisdom to elect those to be saved, despite their inability to perform saving works. 3. Limited atonement. Man's hereditary corruption is partially atoned for by Christ, and this atonement is provided to the elect through the Holy Spirit. 4. Irresistible and prevenient grace, made only to the elect. Grace was a "motion of the heart" that was God's gift to the elect-unconditional, irresistible, and inexorable. It came to each directly and could not be taken away. It promised "ecstatic intimacy with the divine" or "soul liberty."5. Perseverance of saints. Those who are predetermined as elect inevitably persevere in the path of holiness.

The Great Remonstrance published in 1610 by the Arminian clergy codified Arminius's beliefs into five major points:

Rejection of the doctrine of electionRejection of predestinationRejection of the belief that Christ died for the elect alone

Rejection of the belief in irresistible grace

Assertion of the belief that saints could fall from grace.

Jonathan Winthrop Sermon…God Almighty in his most holy and wise providence hath so disposed of the condition of mankind as in all times some must be rich, some poor, some high and eminent in power and dignity, others mean and in subjection. . . that every man might have need of other, and from hence they might be all knit more nearly together in the bond of brotherly affection. . . . Fourthly, All the parts of this body being thus united are made so contiguous in a special relation as they must needs partake of each other's strength and infirmity, joy, sorrow, weal and woe... In such cases as this the care of the public must oversway all private respects… We are entered into covenant with Him for this work… We have hereupon besought Him of favor and blessing.

Now if the Lord shall please to hear us, and bring us in peace to the place we desire, then hath he ratified this covenant and sealed our comission, and will expect a strict performance of the articles contained in it. But if we shall neglect the observation of these articles, which are the ends we have propounded, and dissembling with our God shall fall to embrace this present world and prosecute our carnal intentions--seeking great things for ourself and our posterity--the Lord will surely break out in wrath against us, be revenged of such a perjured people, and make us know the price of the breach of such a covenant... If our hearts shall turn away so that we will not obey, but shall be seduced and worship other gods, our pleasures and profits, and serve them, it is propounded to us this day, we shall surely perish out of the good land-whither we pass over this vast sea to possess it. “Christian Charity, A Model Thereof” 1630
