Episode 82 - Biographical Dictionary of Evangelicals: Jacobus Arminius
Manage episode 482863102 series 2841598
Today we are continuing our random march through Inter-Varsity Press' Biographical Dictionary of Evangelicals. My son pulled random number 18, which lead us to page 18 in the book. Page 18 takes us to Jacobus Arminius - the founder of the Remonstrant Movement and the arch-enemy of Calvinists everywhere. That's a bit of a joke but he is the founder of one of the two primary (sorry Molinists) views on the Doctrines of Grace. He was also a pastor, a scholar, a peacemaker, and ultimately, a man who sought to defend the goodness and justice of God at all costs — even when it cost him dearly.
