Are Arminians saved?

Maybe. Before you go ballistic, hear me out. Belief in a theological system saves no one. Just because one affirms the doctrines of grace – Calvinism- as the correct soteriological doctrine does not mean one is saved. Just because one affirms an incorrect doctrine, such as Arminiansim, does not then mean one is NOT saved, either. A person is saved through their faith in the work of Christ. This is not a Calvinist/Arminian issue. The Calvinist/Arminian issue has to do with how one gets to the point of salvation. Arminians think man’s decision to believe was the fundamental one, cooperating with the grace of God, resulting in salvation. Calvinists, being correct believe that the decision of God to save is the fundamental one.
