Summary

This work is a book (11 Chapters) by Calvinist-Reformed John Bunyan. The truth about Calvinism is that they do not believe God gives every person the same opportunity to repent and be saved, but that some are elected to heaven (they cannot resist this), and the logic counterpart is that then the rest are elected to hell without opportunity to ever be saved. This is called Reprobation. While most smart Calvinists do not publicize this doctrine of Calvinism much, they do believe in it. This is Bunyan’s presentation of reprobation.

Evaluation by David Cox

Bunyan is an Anglican and Calvinist-Reformed, so those warnings would apply to this work. This is a book which has the heart of Calvinism at its core, and it is very strongly argued that God determines unilaterally some people going to hell without anything they could ever do to change that. I personally do not hold to this position, and I do not think most good Christian people would (the majority of Calvinists even have problem with this conclusion). The many appeals by God to look, repent, believe, and be saved would be hollow and sadistic if this doctrine was true.

I would not recommend this work for most people, only those studying the errors of Calvinism.

Buy me a Cup of Coffee! To make an old Christian work into a PDF, a module for theWord, MySword, or eSword takes time. These works are scans from old books, and as such, I have to go through the text some dozen times looking for places where the OCR is incorrect, blurred, or just skipped something.

Text Editing.Then there are the old Bible references like John iii. 16. Many young Christians and even preachers do not know the Latin system for books of the Bible. I convert Roman numerals in these books to Arabic (iii. to 3).

I have had to invest days and days in writing macros to read a long text, and make substitutions (for the above, search for "iii" and replace with "3:"). Unfortunately, with Psalms you have to start with 150 in Roman numerals (CL) and work your way backwards. But using macros, it is almost instantaneous the next time I need this. Work smarter, not harder. All this takes time and patience, (and being smart enough to do it in a macro language) (as well as a lot of coffee) and then making the text into theWord or eSword, mySword or a PDF.

Please donate something to me once every 6 months or even once a year, even if it is only $5, so that I can pay my bills for hosting, and also keep things moving along. It costs me about $10 per month to keep a website on the Internet. My websites also contains ads which have links to my sermons, tracts, books, that I have written. These keep my works before visitors, even if they are not visiting the specific website where I have them stored. It is my own "web" internally of my own sites with links to good Christian literature. May God bless for your prayers and donations.

Take a look at a few of our tracts:
salv76 suffering should seek his Savior - explains how we should react to problems and sufferings, we should seek the Savior.
pc15 How to fight against depression - we treat the problem of depression. Depression is not a physical disease, it is an emotional and spiritual disease that "bleeds over" and causes aggravation and physical consequences if not attended to at the spiritual-social-emotional level.
ch15 Congregating because we Love - a tract about why we attend church. Our relationship with our brethren in Christ is highly integrated with our salvation and our sanctification.
SSTeen1-01 Existence of God - Does God really exist? This is not a tract but a teen Sunday School Class that I wrote answering this important question.
fam48 Men are God's Agents - Men are God’s Agents to accomplish His Will, looks at man as God wants him to be. Manhood and the husband-wife relationship.
