Dever on Calvinist Rise – Entire Series
August 12, 2007I’ve been waiting until Mark Dever got through with his series, before linking you to the whole thing. His question for 10 has been “where have all these Calvinists come from?” His answers are well worth a read.
1. Charles Spurgeon
2. Lloyd-Jones
3. Banner of Truth Trust
4. Evangelism Explosion
5. Inerrancy Controversy
6. Presbyterian Church in America
7. JI Packer
8. RC Sproul and John MacArthur
9. John Piper
10. The rise of secularism and decline of Christian nominalism

I know he would not list himself, but I think Dever’s efforts (9marks, T4G, etc…) have been very instrumental as well.
I agree with all of those. On a personal note, I heard John Piper speak during my first semester in Seminary (2000), and my view of salvation, scripture, and the world has not been the same since.
Mark’s answers to that question are indeed a worthy read. Thanks for passing this along to those that you’re in touch with.
