Calvinism

The same as it does for non-Calvinists. Calvinism is not a religion, it is a theology within Christianity that is embraced by many different denominations.

Baptism for a Calvinist is a public declaration and a symbol, of repentance (dying to one's sinful flesh) and being born again to a new life in Christ Jesus.

Geneva, Switzerland

John Calvin believed in man kind's depravity and sinfulness. He was a protestant reformer and his beliefs are the foundation of Calvinism.

He was61 years old when he died.

calvin believed in predestination- the idea that a soul was destined from birth to go to heaven or hell

he also believed in a very strict moral code, evidenced by his tightly run community in Geneva in which everyone had to go to church every day, dancing, gambling, alcohol and other 'unholy' acts/icons were prohibited, and bed times were set by government

No.

John Calvin preached that salvation was given by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. That no man is saved through anything which is within himself or another person but only through the work of Jesus as He died as an atoning sacrifice for the sins of all who would believe.

At the time of the Protestant Reformation, there were many different leaders and ideas which could be followed; Zwingli and Calvin in Switzerland, Knox in Scotland, Luther in Germany, Cranmer in Britain, and many others. Most of these men had very similar views about salvation and their opposition to the abuses in the Roman Catholic Church, but they also had significant differences too.

Rather than a Christian denomination or sect, Calvinism is a system of thought regarding Christian beliefs (theology).

There were many contributing factors which drew Protestants to the views of John Calvin, but one of the most influential was Calvin's prolific writing. In 1536 he published what many consider his most famous work, Institutes of the Christian Religion, a book still popularly read and studied today. He wrote more than 1,300 letters still in existence, and published sermons and comments on most of the books of the Bible.

He moved to ganeva so set up a leadership church

There was one major difference between John Calvin and Martin Luther. John Calvin thought that God has predetermined who was going to heaven, and who was going to hell, BEFORE the person was born. Luther thought that you achieved salvation from faith alone.

Hope this helped ;D

By the grace of God, through faith in Jesus Christ. He taught that God chooses to save individuals, man cannot choose God because they are spiritual dead.

No.

calvinism

John Calvin was a preacher who stated that some people were predestined for salvation. He broke Switzerland off into their own little reformed thing instead of agreeing with the thoughts and customs of the Roman Catholic Church.

Inscripturation is the same in English and in French. The feminine singular noun most famously references the process of revelation and inspiration that pastor, reformer and theologian John Calvin (July 10, 1509-May 27, 1564) of Picardy, France, viewed as necessary to avoid the potential errors of a totally oral tradition. The pronunciation will be "leh-skreep-tyoo-ra-syo" in Alsatian French.

He spend his days in a lot of places, but he died in Genva where he lived and preached for a long time. He preached Calvinism to the people and it became the major religion.

"Calvinism" is named after John Calvin (1509-1564) who systematized Bible beliefs and theological doctrines. He lived one and a half thousand years after the New Testament was finished so he himself is not mentioned in the Bible but the beliefs he explained are.
