A Christian doesn’t have to be a Calvinist or an Arminian.

 Our theology should come out of the Bible instead of reading our theology into the Bible.

 Theology should humble you. It defies complete human understanding. (We’re talking about God!) Deuteronomy 29:29; Isaiah 55:8-9; Romans 11:33

Reconciling God’s sovereignty and man’s free will has baffled theologians for centuries. (It will continue to do so.)

 Calvinists should not treat non-Calvinists in a condescending, patronizing, elitist manner (like some Charismatics once did).

Calvinists should focus more on Christ than on Calvin. “J.C.” stands for “Jesus Christ,” not "John Calvin.”

Non-Calvinists must not treat Calvinists as “the enemy.” They are our brothers in Christ.

A Calvinistic pastor, seminary president, or professor should be candid and forthright

 about his “Calvinism” and not try to stealthily take over a non-Calvinistic church,

 seminary, college, or denomination.

 A Calvinistic lay-teacher/leader at Bellevue should be candid and forthright about his/her “Calvinism” and not stealthily propagate/teach Calvinistic doctrine.

We ALL need to know what we believe and why we believe it. Doctrine does matter.

Every Christian, Calvinistic or non-Calvinistic, should be a soul winner (not just “missional/ mission-minded”)!
