Thanks for being a loyal fan of Calvinistic Cartoons when so many are taking the fast track of Facebook and not looking back. We appreciate you and those who continue reading this blog.

This looks a lot better enlarged, believe me.

Secret of the High Five

According to Wikipedia the high five is a celebratory hand gesture that occurs when two people simultaneously raise one hand, about head high, and push, slide or slap the flat of their palm and hand against the palm and flat hand of their partner. The gesture is often preceded verbally by the phrase "Give me five" or "High five".

Unknown to most of the world, is the fact that John Calvin created this "signal" to secretly confirm the belief in the five points of Calvinism in the public square. Below is a painting of John Calvin high-five-ing William Farel, who is just outside the painting.

Arminians use this gesture without knowing the significance behind it.

Below is a photo of two Arminians after a successful snake-handling service.

"High five" was also used by Jonathan Edwards, A.W. Pink and Corky Velveeta.

So next time someone says, "Gimme five"...explain the origin and be on your way.

Strange Sheet Music

I came across this old sheet music by Irving Berlin yesterday while trying to get to Narnia in an old wardrobe. This is one of Irv's lesser known works and there is a reason he mentions Pink in his song. Story goes that Pink was expounding the Doctrines of Grace one evening on a train bound for Mobile, Alabama. Irving Berlin walked in not realizing a church service was going on and politely sat down in back. Pink ended his sermon and asked Irv if he would like to close in prayer. Irving Berlin asked everyone to bow their heads and close their eyes, then slipped out the back door of the train. Irving never got over his cowardice and later wrote this song. He sent it to A.W. with a hand-written apology and the first draft of "I'm Dreaming of a Pink Christmas" which Mr. Berlin later changed to "White".

Praying Pink and Predestination

Calvinistic Cartoons Tongue Twister Time

Pink paid plenty for preaching predestination with pensive passion and persuasive perspicity.
