First of all Theodore, I like to point out to you that this article was written in the mid-1800s. As a comparison of three different theologies, but the point made that I find most interesting is that the author points out that there is only, in reality, two competing theologies.
--- Quote ---There are, in fact, as we might have anticipated, but two complete self-consistent systems of Christian theology possible.
1st. On the right hand, Augustinianism completed in Calvinism. 2nd. On the left hand, Pelagianism completed in Socinianism. And 3rd. Arminianism comes between these as the system of compromises and is developed Semipelagianism.

Do you believe that Socinianism is a heresy?

I am aware of the era in which the article was written and yes there are only two competitive theories of salvation. One which the sin of murder is falsely assumed to be a direct benefit and the majority holds this assumptive to be true.

Thank you Rev. Jones for your great insight and wealth of knowledge on the subject. As always you have clarified your position eloquently. Now we all understand thoroughly where you stand on Socinianism.

I am not affiliated with any contemporary religious system. Socinianism is no greater heresy than the heresies you've proposed not to be heresy. And you have misinformed yourself of where I stand.
