A Defense of the Five Points of Calvinism
God's Sovereignty and Man's SalvationSteve Gregg
In this presentation, Steve Gregg defends the five points of Calvinism. The first point of Calvinism is the total depravity of man. Gregg cites scriptural testimony to emphasize that salvation is entirely in God's hands as humans, being in rebellion against God, cannot contribute to their relationship with him. Gregg argues that God regenerates the elect when they hear the gospel, and those who wholeheartedly receive it know that they are among the chosen ones.
