Arminianism

As part of my study of Christianity, I am studying Methodism. As part of that study are the ideas of Jacobus Arminius, Dutch Thoelogian (1560 - 1609).  Adherents of his root ideas are known as Remonstrants, and their Five Articles of Remonstrance are influential in the development of Methodism.  I am studying these articles one by one and I'm posting them as I study.
