Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, we are going to be discussing the difference between

being reformed and a Calvinist. I know many think that being a Calvinist is being reformed, but they're

actually different. We're going to explain why. We have three major reasons that we believe

would be a distinction between those who are

reformed and those who would just believe in the five points of Calvinism. Then towards the

other podcast, we explain why it is important for the distinction. If you love resting in Christ

in the message of Theocast, then this is going to be coming from a reform perspective.

In our members' podcast, the three of us explain our transition out of, we would say, pietism or Calvinism into a confessionally reform perspective and hopefully share with you some other

additional helps in the members' podcast. Stay tuned.

Hey, guys, there's a quick reminder if you'd like to join
