What are the Five Points of Calvinism? Do the Doctrines of Grace have anything, ultimately, to do with a man named John Calvin? Or, are they truly biblical and find their foundation in the Scriptures themselves? In this message, Pastor Jeff Durbin teaches for our series on the Doctrines of Grace. This message was on the first letter of the acrostic, TULIP: Total Depravity.

How sovereign is God? Is He mostly sovereign or completely sovereign? How important is this particular issue? Does it really matter? Are the Scriptures unclear? What is the condition of fallen human beings? Are our wills ‘free’ or are we enslaved to sin?

We would encourage you to get out your bible, a notebook, and a pen. Watch this message and test your traditions by the Scriptures. The Scriptures are the sole infallible rule of faith, therefore, our beliefs must be consistent with the Word of God and we must be willing to abandon any belief that contradicts God’s Word no matter how long we’ve held them or how cherished it has become.
