Calvinism A strict form of Protestantism that follows the theological tradition and forms of Christian practice of John Calvin and other Reformation-era theologians. Calvinists broke from the Roman Catholic Church and the Church of England in the 16th century. John Calvin held a view on predestination. This is the view that God has actively chosen some people for salvation. These people are referred to as ‘The Elect’.

From Tam O’Shanter Care, mad to see a man sae happy, a E'en drown'd himsel' amang the nappy! a As bees flee hame wi' lades o' treasure, b The minutes wing'd their way wi' pleasure: b Kings may be blest, but Tam was glorious. c O'er a' the ills o' life victorious! c
