Five Points of Calvinism (TULIP) Total Depravity: through Adam and Eve’s fall, every person is born sinful Unconditional Election: God “saves” those he wishes; concept of predestination Limited Atonement: Jesus died for the chosen only, not for everyone. Irresistible Grace: God’s grace is given freely; it cannot be earned or denied Perseverance of the “saints”: those elected by God have full power to interpret the will of God The Puritans were strict Calvinists, or followers of the reformer John Calvin. Calvin taught that God was all-powerful and completely sovereign. Human beings were depraved sinners. God had chosen a few people, "the elect," for salvation. The rest of humanity was condemned to eternal damnation. But no one really knew if he or she was saved or damned; Puritans lived in a constant state of spiritual anxiety, searching for signs of God's favor or anger. The experience of conversion was considered an important sign that an individual had been saved. Salvation did not depend on outward behavior, but on a radical undertaking that demanded each individual to plumb the very depths of his heart and soul. This "Covenant of Grace" contrasted with the "Covenant of Works," which stressed the importance of righteous behavior. Faith, not works, was the key to salvation. The experience of conversion did not happen suddenly; it proceeded in fits and starts punctuated by doubt, as divine power worked its way on fragile human material.
