Weary of all the tripe, treakle and snake oil on offer at seeker sensitive goat pounds, people are turning to Calvinism in search of the simple truth of the Gospel according to a 2010 Christian Science report.
Calvinism essentially, is the doctrine which holds that man, being dead in trespasses and sin is not capable of 'choosing' or 'inviting' anything. Rather, the act of redeeming a sinner is the work of God alone, in its entirety. Calvinists hold to the doctrine of Election, namely that God chooses the sinner rather than the sinner choosing God. Calvinism however, is anathama to seeker sensitive / purpose driven and other charismatic, man centric ideologies.

Distressed and angry with what has happened to the Church since man got a say in God's plan of redemption through the Arminian concept, folk in their droves are turning away from the ridiculous excesses of huckster preachers and their deluded fellowships, and seeking simple faith and trust in the risen Saviour alone.
True revival drives people to the Word, not to churches. And true revival is focussed ENTIRELY on Christ.
