We continue our studies of the first tenet of Calvinism, Total depravity. We look at how the Jews of Jesus' day had ample opportunity to hear and know the truth, and to believe that they might be saved. We look at Jesus' teachings found in John 5, 12, and 15, as well as Paul's description of how the word of faith was clearly preached to Israel, but they stubbornly rejected it (Romans 10).
In this series, we examine the 5 tenets of Calvinism, represented by the TULIP acronym and show how each of these assertions are inconsistent with the teaching of the Scriptures when considered from a dispensational viewpoint.
