    What the five points actually say

    Pick a letter. Each point is put in plain words, with what it does not mean, the key verses, and the wording of three historic Reformed confessions side by side.

    The hard passages

    Passages raised against the five points

    Pick a passage. Read it, tap the highlighted words for notes, then compare the objection with the Reformed reading. Four reading rules do most of the work, and each passage shows which ones it uses.
