In the first case, OSAS is a bastardized view of POTS to try to reconcile the "free will" choice of coming to Christ with the idea that one cannot lose their salvation. The problem Arminians "free willers" have is, if you can come to Christ on your own free will, then can't you at some point in time reject that salvation? True Arminians will say, "Of course you can." and it is in their creed.

You might find it interesting to know that Calvin did not teach some things that many Calvinists now believe, and that Arminius did not teach what Calvinists claim he taught. I think it would be fair to say that the reverse is also true.

Could you be a little more specific? You might find it interesting that I haven’t read very much of Calvin. His name just happens to be stuck with Reformed theology much the way Arminias name is stuck on the Semi-Pelagius side.

Have you read through the Protestant’s Westminster or London Baptist Confession of Faith? I find that Protestants don’t really seem to have a clue about the founding fathers of Protestantism or what Protestant is all about. The TULIP was recent development but is not nearly as comprehensive as the confessions.
