Calvinism Improved

A posthumous bombshell from inside New England orthodoxy. Joseph Huntington was a respected Connecticut Congregationalist, a doctor of divinity of unquestioned standing — and, as this manuscript revealed after his death, a secret universalist. His argument is the striking one his title implies: that Calvinism's own premises, sovereign grace and Christ's satisfaction, lead not to the salvation of a few elect but of all people. Its publication scandalized Connecticut and provoked an official reply, showing how far universalist conclusions had penetrated the very citadel of Calvinism.
