An Antidote Against Arminianism: Or a Treatise to Enervate and Confute All the Five Points Thereof (1836)

""An Antidote Against Arminianism"" is a theological treatise written by Christopher Ness in 1836. The book aims to refute the five points of Arminianism, a theological doctrine that emphasizes the free will of human beings and the possibility of losing salvation. Ness argues against the Arminian belief in prevenient grace, which suggests that God's grace is available to all people, and salvation is achieved through human cooperation with God's grace. He also challenges the Arminian belief in conditional election, which states that God chooses individuals for salvation based on their faith and good works. Ness argues for the Calvinist doctrine of unconditional election, which asserts that God chooses individuals for salvation based solely on His own will. The book also addresses the Arminian belief in universal atonement, which suggests that Christ died for all people, and the Calvinist belief in limited atonement, which asserts that Christ died only for the elect. Ness argues in favor of limited atonement, stating that Christ's death was sufficient for the salvation of the elect alone. Overall, ""An Antidote Against Arminianism"" is a comprehensive critique of Arminianism from a Calvinist perspective.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
