I just finished reading an e-preview edition of a short book titled Against Calvinism: Logical Arguments to Disprove the Doctrines of Grace. It is co-authored by Jeff Peterson, Eddie Eddings, and Jon J. Cardwell. It's published by CreateSpace and is available on Amazon.
In short, this little book presents a concise description of the Reformation, the basics of Arminianism and Calvinism, the five protests of the Arminian Remonstrance, the five points of Calvinism (TULIP) with proof biblical support and scripture references, and the "Logical Arguments Against" each of the five points from an Arminian perspective. Each section is then followed by a brief humorous dialog between the fictitious characters Skeeter and Satch .
I have mixed feelings regarding the concept of the book. While the description of the TULIP of Calvinism, along with the summary and textual references for each area, is informative and to the point, I think that the "Logical Arguments Against" each of the five points, while the authors may think the idea witty, may in fact turn off those whom they might hope to influence. That's all I'll say so as not to spoil what is intended to be humorous.
I've done my duty.
God bless!
Soli Deo Gloria!!
