NEO-CALVINISM VS. THE BIBLE 045. “HOW PERSEVERANCE DOCTRINE DESTROYS ASSURANCE” EPHESIANS 2:10. DR. ANDY WOODS. 10-05-25 Here’s a summary of the PowerPoint: · Calvinism Critique: Calvinism is critiqued for imposing a philosophy on Scripture, relying heavily on Augustine and altering scriptural meanings to fit its doctrines rather than Scripture itself 1 2 · Perseverance Doctrine: The Calvinistic 'Perseverance of the Saints' emphasizes believer's faithfulness but is argued to undermine assurance of salvation and promote uncertainty 3 4 5 · Scriptural Interpretation: Verses used to support perseverance are often taken out of context, and biblical holiness and faith are necessary for final salvation, not mere perseverance 6 7 8 9 · Assurance of Salvation: Biblical assurance of salvation is presented as a privilege for all believers based on God's testimony, contrasting with Calvinism's view which fosters doubt 10 11 12
