The 'Pelagian' Boogeyman: Why Calvinists Use This Label

About this sermon

Why do so many theological debates end with someone being labeled a "Pelagian"? In this discussion, we examine the history of Pelagius, the debate with Augustine over original sin and inherited guilt, and why the label "Pelagian" is often used as a theological boogeyman. Rather than relying on labels and church history alone, the conversation challenges Christians to engage the actual arguments and examine what Scripture says.
