Authors:  ȘTEFAN ȘUTEU.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  The doctrinal system of Protestantism has its roots in the religious movements which stirred controversies during the Papal schism (14th-15th centuries). A fundamental change of perspective viewed in relation to the traditional Catholic system has begun in the British Isles and was initiated by the rector of Lutterworth, John Wycliffe. The present paper outlines similarities / differences between Wycliffe’s theology and the conceptual frame of Calvinism (the so called TULIP). Wycliffe’s doctrine has echoes in Calvin’s and Arminius’ doctrine and, through their mediation, Wycliffe, known as the Morning Star of the Reformation exerted a wider influence on the Protestant movement.

Keywords: Christian Reformation, Wycliffe, Lollardism, Calvin, Calvinism, Arminius, Five Theses of Calvinism, TULIP, Remonstrance, Counter-Remonstrance
