Arminianism is known to some as a soteriological diversification of Calvinism to others, Arminianism is a reclamation of early Church theological consensus. Jacobus Arminius (Jakob Harmenszoon) was a student of Theodore Beza (Calvin's successor) at the Theological University of Geneva.

His teachings held to the five solae of the Reformation, but they were distinct from particular teachings of Martin Luther, Huldrych Zwingli, John Calvin, and other Protestant Reformers. Arminianism is a branch of Protestantism based on the theological ideas of the Dutch Reformed theologian Jacobus Arminius (1560â∱609) and his historic supporters known as Remonstrants.
