Greetings Woody - I have a serious question for someone a bit sharper than me (includes most, I know) - Calvin was a religious man, as was Wesley - lets for sake of argument say both made it to heaven - who was right ?

Due to the fact that both men trusted in Christ, and Christ alone, for salvation, both were right.

Now, while I appreciate John Wesley (and even wear a copy of his signet ring on my right hand), I would have to say that John Calvin was a more diligent and thoughtful theologian than Wesley. I fully expect that the two of them are able to fellowship together as brothers at the feet of Christ.

Follow-up to my 73.

I also believe that John Wesley has made a posthumous apology to his old friend George Whitfield by now, and that the two of them are also enjoying fellowship at the throne of Christ.

Being "religious" has nothing to do with salvation. lots of "religious" people will be burning in hell

As for Calvin and Wesley I would suspect they are too busy saying "Holy ,Holy Holy "to discuss doctrine ..

Both made it... Then they trusted in Christ alone for their salvation. They wholly leaned on His name and trusted from the depth of their heart on His blood and righteousness. There is no other way.
