Edward Strengthened Protestantism and moved closer to Luther (reign 1547-1553)

Mary I the Daughter of Catherine and Henry tried to bring back Catholicism. In the process killed many Protestants; bad way to make friends (reign 1547-1553).

Queen Elizabeth I One of the Great Leaders of her Time

• Under Elizabeth the pendulum of English religion swung again.

• Elizabeth I (1558-1603) was raised as a Protestant, but she was a shrewd politician; she was a master of playing one side against the other.

Calvin Establishes a Theocracy

• God Rules• Theocracy means

“God Rules ﾕ but has come to mean a government run by religious leaders of a particular religion or religious view.”

Calvin Best Known for the Idea Predestination

• Predestination means that God has determined before the beginning of the universe all things which will ever take place. This is also called the sovereignty of God. Calvinism emphasized that because salvation was predestined it was purely by grace (unearned).

You know, predestination would sure speed things up

on judgment day

• Perseverance of the Saints those God has elected will remained saved

• Arminianism• Free Will Man can choose to

be saved• Conditional Election God

chooses who will be saved based on what man does

• Unlimited Atonement Christ died for all

• Resistible Grace God’s call can be resisted

• Falling from Grace A person that has been saved can lose that salvation
