- 1加爾文主義（改革宗、長老教會那一系的教義）
Calvinism is the Christian teaching that follows John Calvin, a French church leader in the 1500s. At its heart is the claim that God already rules what happens on earth, including who will be saved, and that people cannot that plan. Reformed and Presbyterian churches grew from this root, though actually not every church with that history teaches it in the hardest form today. In loose English, calling someone Calvinist can just mean they sound strict about duty or fate; that stretch is everyday talk, not careful church language. The word lives in history class, theology, and news about churches, not in casual chat.
組成Calvin, the man's name, plus -ism, a system of thought. From French calvinisme.

Calvinismnoun/ˈkæl.vɪ.nɪ.zəm/
- 1
The Christian religious tradition based upon the doctrines and forms of Christian practice of several Protestant reformers, especially John Calvin, in contrast to Catholicism, Lutheranism, Anabaptism, and Arminianism. One distinctive trait of the system is its Augustinian doctrine of predestination, which teaches that God has elected some for salvation, apart from anything they do or believe.
