The "Five Points of Calvinism" summarize key beliefs of the Reformed tradition in Christianity, often remembered by the acronym TULIP. The first point, Total Depravity, asserts that humanity is completely affected by sin and unable to choose God without divine intervention. The second point, Unconditional Election, states that God has chosen certain individuals for salvation based on His will alone, not on any foreseen merit. The third point, Limited Atonement, suggests that Christ's sacrifice was specifically for the elect. The fourth point, Irresistible Grace, indicates that those chosen by God will inevitably come to faith. Finally, Perseverance of the Saints teaches that true believers will remain faithful until the end.
