Remonstrant Brotherhood

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Remonstrant Brotherhood is a religious society in the Netherlands. It has its origins in the dissidence of Jacobus Arminius and the signing of the 'Remonstrance' against strict Calvinism by 44 ministers. They put forward 5 points proclaiming the responsibility of man, pre-ordination through foreknowledge of faith, and that Christ's death was sufficient for all (see Arminianism).

Today, the Remonstrance Brotherhood is a small organisation of 43 congregations.
