Feel free to copy paste this and the next page to a graphics program like MS Publisher, size to an index card, front and back and print to your index card size sheets. This is good for memory cards or for evangelism give away cards. I have not copied this from anyone and give my permission to copy it. On the first page is a brief description of the concept in Calvinism's TULIP with some of the scripture that refute it. On the second page (I hope it is self explanatory to you) is the basic plan of salvation; Hear, Believe, Repent, Confess, be Baptized, Live a Christian Life and take of the Lord's Supper weekly.

1. Calvin's Tulip; accepted by many denominations in full or part.
T- Total Hereditary Depravity-Original Sin (Deut.24:16,Eze.18:20)
It is acknowledged that we have our own sin but we inherited the sin
of Adam and Eve thus we are unable to, of ourselves, come to salvation.
U-Unconditional Election-Predestination (Titus 2:11,I Tim.2:3-4)
God has determined before hand who is saved and who is lost.
L-Limited Atonement-Election (John 3:16, II Pet.3:9, I John 2:1-2)
God only saves those on His list of the ones Predestined to salvation.
I-Irresistible Grace-Miraculous Faith (Rom.10:17, I John 5:1-4)
Since we cannot do anything to save ourselves God acts independent of
us and saves us from sin and gives us a new heart.(Acts 7:51, John 3:16)
P-Preservation of the saints-Once saved always saved
Since God intervenes to save us by His miraculous power we cannot
loose our salvation or fall away. (Heb.6:4-8, Heb.2:1-4, II Pet.3:17).
Calvin's TULIP will not save us. We need to go to the Bible for our answers.
Please turn the card over for a biblical salvation response.
