Puritan Board Freshman
Hello PB!
I've been having some really good conversations with some arminian brothers in Christ who have argued to me that
1) I've gotten my theology from Calvin's Institutes and that
2) Calvin was a murderer (Servetus and the anabaptists, etc.).
While the first is not true by any stretch of the imagination (I get my convictions from Sola Scriptura) I'm having a harder time defending our good forefather in the faith John Calvin. Every source that I've looked at either bashes the poor man to no end or praises him almost to the point of godhood. Anyone have some honest information about this reformer?
