In Defense of the Resurgence of Calvinism

Doug Wilson:
One of the reasons I am pleased with this resurgence of Calvinism is that the sovereign God takes us as we are, but He never leaves us as we are. The doctrines of grace deal with human autonomy and pride like nothing else, and to the extent that these things are being proclaimed (as they clearly are), the young people who are being established in this teaching will be transformed and will grow up into cultural maturity, or they will quickly abandon any pretense of Calvinism. Calvinism is high octane stuff, and it will have its way with us.
