Dr. Fitzsimons Allison's "The Rise of Moralism" (#14): Montagu, Cosin, L...

ishop Allison appears to give a clean-bill of health to Montague and Cosin, two Arminians. Bishop
Allison confines the discussion to the definition of justification by faith alone, but the first actor noted, Montagu, appears, like Romanists, to confuse, confound and conjoin sanctification to justification. Like William Forbes, he gives and takes, leading to confusion. Allison unhelpfully fails to recognize or engage on Arminianism, a doctrine that is Romanistic, as Prof. Hodge rightly notes in his work on the Westminster Confession. We're watching Bishop Allison closely.

Why does Bishop Allison skirt the issue? What of the impact of Arminianism on the doctrine of God, Christology and soteriology? Bishop Allison gives an appearance of being compromised himself. ??.

DV, tomorrow, on to our great friend, Willy Laud, the great disaster in English religious history.
