I agree with the writer’s thesis regarding many Christians buying into the “you can’t legislate morality”, and I’ve also heard many Christians say that getting involved in politics is unGodly and unChristian, that the world is gonna do what the world is gonna do, that “it’s all gonna burn anyway”’ and now, I am also hearing “well, God is working all,of this out according to His will, He is in control” (sort of a Calvinistic fatalism).
Whatever that is, it's not Calvinism.
It may be fatalism.
I have no desire to get into an argument over Reformed doctrine but this simply cannot stand without reply. Anyone who thinks John Calvin was not involved in politics has never read Book IV of Calvin's Institutes or even secular historians writing about politics at the time of the Reformation. The political nature of historic Calvinism really is a matter of crystal clear black-and-white facts about which there can be no serious historical dispute.
