Before the beginning of the process of salvation as known to men (where Salvation equals Justification, Regeneration, Adoption, Betrothal, Sanctification, and then Glorification), God has done a lot more: Election which equates with Foreknowledge Predestination, Redemption, and Call. There are varying opinions on the big picture of salvation, differing on how much weight one gives to the divine and human will on salvation. If we draw a spectrum of soteriology, on the left are Pelagianism, Semi-Pelagianism, and (Classical, Wesleyan, and Modern) Arminianism, and on the right are Moderate, Classical, and Hyper-Calvinism. Historical church councils have judged the three left-side opinions as heretical. But what is the biblical and balanced position? We analyze the ways to build theology from the Bible and propose a satisfying solution.
