K2P: What you state could not be farther from the truth. I have been called a HC before, and the label is thrown around without the people knowing what it actually means.

I know of no HC who denies preaching the Gospel. THe person who says that is not an HC, he is just misinformed and in error. IF you would like to see what an HC is, then read the people who had this label attached to them.

John Gill, John Brine, William Huntington, to name a few. You will see for yourself. I doubt these were actual HC's anyway, but definately went beyond Calvin, which is not a fault.

Typically a HC states thus:

1) Deny duty faith/duty repentance.
2) Look at the imperative commands, and "if" clauses of scripture, as eupemisms.
3)The do not elevate the Sovereignty of God, because that can never be done, but they deny any duty or responsibility of man
4)Deny the 3rd use of the Law according to Luther.


This is a start, so before you find this label appalling, read for yourself what these men actually confessed before reading internet people who throw the word around without knowing what they are saying. A true HC may have errors, but the errors they are accused of in modern days are not true.

There never was a sinner half as big as Christ is as a Savior.
