PART TWO  EXSPOSITON OF THE CANONS  Third and Fourth Heads of Doctrine  OF THE CORRUPTION OP MAN, HIS CONVERSION TO GOD, AND THE MANNER THEREOF  REJRCTION OF ERRORS  Article 8 

In the third place, we may notice once again that the Arminian employs the “big lie” technique in his attempt to discredit the truth. As is very plain from the language of the fathers in this article, this charge of the Arminians is nothing short of preposterous. Nothing could be farther from the truth than this allegation which they bring against the doctrine of the certainty of perseverance. And it seems that they almost felt that if they made their lie big enough and cunning enough, they might be able to overthrow the truth in the minds of some.

Article 17. 

Before proceeding with our exposition of this article, we want to call attention to the fact that this, accusation, that Reformed doctrine makes of man a stock and block, has come to be used as a sort of bogey-man and that too, rather successfully in some cases. For some reason, possibly because of a faulty understanding of this accusation and of the truth over against it, there are those who are rather easily frightened out of their Reformed position by this charge.
