Non-Calvinist theologians?

I'm reasonably sure that Matthew Henry was a 5 pointer.

This is an interesting thread. As I look at a lot of the theologians that I have books by, they are all Calvinistic. Yet when I bought most of them, I wouldn't have considered myself Calvinistic. Yet, I recognized good treatment of scripture that these books had.

A couple questions 1) Was D.L. Moody a "theologian" 2) Was he Calvinistic? I'm fairly sure the answer to #2 is no, because I thought he said you could lose your salvation.

Mathew Henry was not a 5 point Calvinist. He was moderate at most. He was a non-conformist minister.
I use his commentary quite often and he most definitely believed in a general atonement.
 
G . E. Ladd(baptist), F. F. Bruce (brethren), Oliver B. Greene(baptist), Henry Ironside(brethren) , David H Stern (messianic jew), Spiros Zodihates ( greek scholar) .

All of these theologians are non-5 point calvinist and neither are they considered arminian.

John Wesley would probably be one of the best known Arminian theologians right?
John Wesley was a preacher and evangelist. I would not personally have described him as a theologian, any more than I would so have described Whitefield or Spurgeon.
