This book critically examines the tenets of Calvinism and constructs a Bible-based argument to refute the belief. It discusses each of Calvinism's five points. It defines four very unique criteria that can be used to show that the belief is incorrect. The first criterion is that a person does not have to know the name of Jesus to be saved. In discussing that criterion the relationship aspect of salvation is examined. The second criterion is that God did not speak out loud to the Old Testament saints once Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden. The third criterion is that God tries equally hard to save everyone. In discussing that criterion the importance of General Revelation is examined. The fourth criterion is that God is still sovereign even though He lets people choose to come to Him or to not come to Him. The book concludes by refuting each of the five points of Calvinism with a special focus on the established four criteria and the verses that are normally used to defend the belief.
