'''Arminianism''' is a school of [[Protestant]] [[Christian]] theology developed by [[Jacobus Arminius]]. Its influence is found throughout many Protestant denominations such as [[Methodist|Methodism]] and [[Pentecostalism]].
Arminian theology is often described as being on the opposite end of the Protestant spectrum from [[Calvinism]]. Unlike Calvinism, which holds that [[God]] predestines some people to be [[saved]] through God's grace and individuals cannot make the decision to come to [[Christ]] of their own free will, Arminianism holds that salvation is a matter of personally choosing to accept Christ and that salvation is available to anyone who makes that choice of their own free will. Also, unlike Calvinists and many [[Baptist]]s, Arminianism teaches that a believer can lose their salvation if they fall away from the faith or consciously reject Christ.
