Calvinism isn't that big a deal. Just look at it as someone trusting God on absolutely every single possible anything and you've got it No, it's a self-delusion that everything one does is doing God's work.

Yes, that is all that's taught by Calvinism.
Everything is the result of the intentional decision of God, bar nothing.
That's it.
Trust God and don't worry should be their slogan.

"Salvation is in obeying the Commandments, not sola scriptura scrabble."
"No, it's a self-delusion that everything one does is doing God's work."
Alright, now that we agree that we can't work for our salvation it must be "by grace are ye saved through faith....it is the gift of God, not works..."
