This is just my opinion, but I think most Protestants today are Arminian in their beliefs, though few even know what Arminianism or Calvinism mean. As far denominational creeds go, the Reformed churches (Dutch Reformed, German, etc.), Presbyterian, Church of Christ, and probably Lutheran are Calvinist, I believe. Methodists, the Holiness and Pentecostal churches, Church of the Nazarene are Arminian. The evangelist, John Wesley, was the best spokesperson for that doctrine and against Calvinism ever. Baptists have no creed. A few centuries ago, they were divided along Patricular (Calvinist) and General (Arminian) Baptist lines. I would guess 95% + are Arminian, though again few even know the term. Here's are a couple of links on the subject: indwes.edu cresourcei.org Bruce
