By what teaching, by what example or principle of Jesus or his apostles are Christians authorized to use threats of death or harm against those who did not agree with them? How is it anyone’s “duty” to persecute the Waldenses or any other group in Christ’s name?
Amen!

According to John 16:1-4 such actions were used against Christ’s followers not by them.

Why does the OPC say
this about the Armianians?
Arminianism is indeed a heresy,....
The Bible teaches that Christ did his atoning work on behalf of his elect people, and no others.....
Since the teachings of Arminianism are contrary to Scripture, they are manifestly false. They are serious perversions of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Are Arminian preachers heretics? In a sense, yes,
Is Arminianism a damnable heresy? Yes.
