Countering Calvinism
"Calvinism negates human free will and damages God's reputation as a good God."
- Dr. Billy Wilson
This episode of World Impact takes place in Geneva, Switzerland, where Dr. Billy Wilson and scholar Bedros Nassanian reflect on the lasting influence of John Calvin and the doctrines of Calvinism. Speaking from St. Pierre’s Cathedral, they outline Calvinism’s central teachings while also raising biblical questions about predestination, free will, and the scope of Christ’s atonement. Dr. Wilson highlights scripture’s assurance that salvation is offered to all and that God calls people to actively respond in faith. Alongside this theological discussion, the program touches on Geneva’s broader history of reform and humanitarian impact. Viewers are invited to consider how God’s grace and human choice work together in the life of faith, leading to a more active, hope-filled walk with Christ.
