The show blends theology, humor, cultural analysis, and pastoral insight—inviting you into a conversation that is purposeful, biblical, and surprisingly entertaining. If you’ve ever wanted a podcast where you can actually get your questions answered, welcome to A Lot of Words.2026 A Lot of Words スピリチュアリティ

    What Is Calvinism? TULIP, Predestination & Free Will Explained
    2026/10/12
    What is Calvinism?Brett and Matt explore the doctrines of grace and the five points commonly summarized by TULIP, examining election, predestination, free will, God's sovereignty and salvation.They discuss the differences between Calvinism and Arminianism, whether Calvinism amounts to fatalism, whether human beings become “robots” under divine sovereignty, whether God loves everyone in the same way, and whether God's decree makes Him the author of evil.The episode also looks closely at several passages frequently raised in debates over Calvinism, including John 3:16, 2 Peter 3:9 and 1 Timothy 2:4.Plus: Can a Calvinist marry a non-Calvinist? Can a committed Arminian still be a Christian? And what should Christians do with someone going through the “cage-stage Calvinism” phase?Before the main topic, Brett and Matt answer listener questions about deception and sexual ethics within marriage.=======================================Episode Topics:0:00 Intro Teaser3:18 Podcast Banter, Boots & Being a “Short King”11:16 The Great Golf Ball Controversy13:23 When Is Deception Okay for a Christian?18:39 Is Self-Gratification Sinful?31:39 What Is Calvinism in Simple Terms?34:09 What Does TULIP Mean?35:51 Calvinism vs. Arminianism: What’s the Real Debate?39:16 Total Depravity & Human Free Will45:19 Why Does God Choose Some People and Not Others?46:19 Limited Atonement Explained48:18 Irresistible Grace: Does Regeneration Precede Faith?49:14 Perseverance of the Saints50:13 If God Elects People, Why Doesn’t He Elect Everyone?54:36 Is Calvinism Fatalism—and Does It Make Us Robots?57:30 What Are Arminianism and Open Theism?1:02:53 Can Calvinists Truly Say God Loves Everybody?1:06:24 Does Calvinism Make God Responsible for Evil?1:10:38 Does John 3:16 Refute Calvinism?1:12:46 Does 2 Peter 3:9 Refute Calvinism?1:17:41 Does 1 Timothy 2:4 Refute Calvinism?1:21:20 Can a Calvinist Marry a Non-Calvinist?1:23:00 Can a Committed Arminian Still Be a Christian?1:26:40 How Should Christians Handle “Cage-Stage Calvinism”?1:28:12 Matt Reacts to TikTok Comments1:28:52 “Allah Created All Gods” — TikTok Reaction1:30:33 Does the Bible Command Abortion?1:31:30 Do Colored Golf Balls Slap?1:32:04 Closing Thoughts=======================================OUR SPONSOR: Logos Bible Software - Get your free 60 day trial: https://logos.sjv.io/alotofwords=======================================Buy Pastor Matt's new book 'Mere Membership':https://a.co/d/04ryklXwHave a question you want answered on the podcast?https://alotofwordspodcast.com/contactShop our merch store.
