Arminianism

I am a Particular Baptist and a 5 point TULIP, so I certainly disagree with many "Arminian" details about how they posit God does things. However, when I consider John Wesley and the work of the Holiness Movement and the circuit preachers that he inspired, men like William Booth and the work of the Salvation Army among the urban poor, and men like Billy Graham and his 'Crusades' ... I find terms like "False Gospel" hard to swallow. The idea sort of catches in one's throat.

Its not of God to condition salvation on man. He conditioned it on the shoulders of Christ alone and for a specific chosen people.
Yes, as we have a particular salvation , but still the elect must receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior thru and by faith . as that conforms their election was true

You still teaching conditions, that's not of God. There is nothing the elect must do, Christ does it all, putting them into possession of Salvation.

We just receive Jesus by the work of the Holy Spirit Himself, so its still fully God salvation
Man is passive in receiving the Spirit, not active. God sends the Spirit into the heart of the redeemed. Gal 4:4-6

4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
