Beggars All: Reformation And Apologetics: Catholic Apologist Jimmy Akin is a "Semi-Calvinist"?

James Swan has written a very interesting article based on another article that criticizes Jimmy Akin's attempt to redefine Calvinism from a Roman Catholic perspective. Looking at it underscores how Calvinist theology and Roman Catholic theology differs.

I can't help but recall Geisler's Chosen But Free. It's true, Akin does indeed modify TULIP to be palatable for Romanism, as Geisler tried to make it palatable for Evangelical Arminians.

The article includes excerpts from Akin's attempt to Romanize the five doctrines of Grace known by the acronym TULIP. This is a great article for anyone who is interested in Calvinism and Roman Catholicism.
