Why Evangelicalism
Needs Calvinism
How marvelous, how wise, how great,
How infinite to contemplate:
Jehovah’s saving plan.
He saw me in my lost estate
Yet purposed to regenerate
This faithless, fallen man.
“The Five Points of Calvinism.”
TULIP is an acrostic, the letters of which stand for the doctrines that were most in dispute:
Total depravity,
Unconditional election,
Limited atonement,
Irresistible grace, and the
Perseverance of the saints.
These are not the wisest or the most accurate ways of speaking about these doctrines; however, they are the most common way, and the acronym is a convenient handle for remembering them. These doctrines are important because they take confidence away from any spiritual good that might be thought to reside in man and instead anchor it in the will and power of God alone.
