'''Calvinism''' (also known as [[Reformed Churches|Reformed Theology]]) is a name given to a set of beliefs and ideas in Christianity, notable for its emphasis on predestination. Calvinism is named after the influential [[Swiss]] [[theologian]] and lawyer [[John Calvin]], though Calvin himself emphatically rejected the term Calvinism. The "five points' of Calvinism were codified after the 1619 decision of the Synod of Dort over the [[Arminianism|Arminian]] controversy.
