Excellent post Corin. The problem is not Weslyanism or Calvinism per se. It is the overemphasis by some on either free will or on divine election that causes the contention. The Bible teaches both free will and divine election. To deny one or the other is to deny what the Bible clearly teaches. Our disgreements for the most part are in matters of minute degrees.

Calvinists are consistant in never denying mans free will...we just think that man will never" will "to have Jesus as Savior and LORD without a new heart..

It is not a matter of salvation...but I would also not call it a small matter because it has to do with the sovereignity of God...
