40 Questions About Arminianism
The actual life and teaching of Jacobus Arminius are often unknown or misunderstood across many Protestant traditions. Answers beyond a basic caricature can be elusive. What are the essential historical backgrounds of Arminianism, and what theological teachings connect to the Arminian point of view? Mixing solid historical research with biblical and doctrinal precision, Baptist scholar J. Matthew Pinson clarifies the foundations of this influential tradition. 40 Questions About Arminianism addresses the following questions and more: Who was Jacobus Arminius? How has the church interpreted God's desire that everyone be saved? How is Arminianism different from Calvinism? Can one be both Reformed and Arminian? What is "universal enabling grace"? What do Arminians mean by "free will"? Do Arminians believe that God predestines individuals to salvation? Is it possible for a Christian to apostatize? An accessible question-and-answer format helps readers pursue the issues that interest them most and encourages a broad understanding of historic and contemporary Arminianism, with additional resources available at 40questions.net.
Arminian Theology
Roger Olson sets forth classical Arminian theology and addresses the myriad misunderstandings and misrepresentations of it through the ages. For anyone interested in the Calvinist/Arminian debate, this irenic yet incisive book argues that classical Arminian theology has a rightful place in the evangelical church because of its deep roots within Reformational theology.
Arminius, Arminianism, and Europe
19 October 2009 marked the 400th anniversary of the death of Jacobus Arminius in Leiden. He was esteemed for the way in which he sought a via media between strict Calvinism and a more humanistic variant of Christian belief. However, because of his deviation from mainstream Calvinism, he has also been violently attacked. Was he a pioneer, who enriched the Reformed tradition by opening it towards new horizons, or a heretic, who founded a new tradition, as an alternative to Reformed theology? The day of the death of this remarkable theologian was commemorated with a conference at Leiden University on Arminius, Aminianism, and Europe (9 and 10 October 2009). The main contributions to that confer...
Prevenient Grace
If a plant grows with shallow roots, the storms of a season will wither away and uproot it; like a house built on sand, a poor foundation will doom its fate. But this isn't a book on botany, nor on architecture; foundations, good roots, are essential to thought structures as well as material structures. In theology, a bad foundation will produce results as catastrophic as bad roots or shifting sand. How we think about God and His work in the world will profoundly affect how we live and work out our Christian faith. This book evolved from the conviction that a prominent theological system rests on a fragile foundation. It is written as a small contribution towards refounding our understanding...
CALVINISM VS. ARMINIANISM
To possess “the light of life,” one must put faith in Jesus Christ and become his follower. On social media every day, millions of Christians are saying such things as “I am a Calvinist,” “I am an Arminian.” “I am a Lutheran,” “I am a Wesleyan,” and so on. They then debate and argue theology as though it is a blood sport. This author is not an Arminian, Calvinist, Wesleyan, Lutheran, Baptist, follower, disciple, or learner of any other denomination; Andrews is non-denominational.

Socinianism And Arminianism
This volume studies Socinianism in its relationship to "liberal" currents in reformed Protestantism, namely Dutch Remonstrants, English Latitudinarians and parts of the French Huguenots. What effects did its transition from Poland to the "modernized" intellectual milieus in the Netherlands and England have?
Anti-Calvinists
This provocative reinterpretation of the divisions of the Church of England traces the rise of Arminianism--the theology opposing Calvinism--during Elizabethan times, arguing that Charles I's subsequent prohibition of Calvinism helped instigate the civil war of 1642.
The Grace of God, the Will of Man
"The Grace of God, the Will of Man: A Case for Arminianism" was written by an impressive team of evangelical scholars from many traditions. This work carries on the ancient debate about the scope of God's saving purposes and the manner of his effecting salvation in human beings. It defends the proposition that God is a dynamic personal Agent who respects the freedom he chose to delegate to his human creatures and relates sensitively to us in the outworking of his plans for the whole of history. God is love and expresses his power by working salvation among us under conditions of genuine mutuality. The contributors to this volume are Christian scholars who are eager to present this evangelical model as an alternative to deterministic theology. They do not claim to have said the last word on the subject but want at least to keep the ball of theological discussion in play.
