Let's Talk TULIP

The Heavenly Banquet

In this episode Chad Rhodes and Charlotte Elia talk through the acronym TULIP, an encapsulation of five points of Calvinism: total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and perseverance of the saints. Your hosts discuss each point, how it functions within Augustinian Calvinism, and what they find either beneficial or lacking.

Charlotte: "There's no distinction between a cannibalistic serial killer and when I ate more pie than I should have."

Chad: "Yeah, those are not the same thing. Depends on what kind of pie you're eating..."

Charlotte: "Sweeney Todd has entered the chat!"

Chad: "How about 'totally dependent on grace?'"

Charlotte: "Yeah, I think that's so much better. We'll keep the 'T.'"
