The Arminian doctrine of election - 24 June 2010 |
|
Question 4 of the most recent questions for the Guided Reading Course made a reference to Turretin’s Institutes of Elenctic Theology. Since these hefty tomes might not be in everyone’s theological library, here’s the relevant quote:
[The Arminians] attribute a certain causality to faith, so that God is moved by its foresight to choose this rather than that one … Moreover, they make a twofold decree of election: the first general, of saving believers; the second special, of saving individuals by name whom God foresaw would believe. (Turretin, Institutes, IV.xi.7; 1:356-357)
