The Bible Vs Grudem and Son, 2026 edition!

Posted on March 12, 2026 by A Bit Of Orange

We’ve made a HUGE UPDATE to this book! There’s 80 additional pages of content, including more than 60 new illustrations! Download it now!

In short, this book shows you what Calvinism is from what Calvinists say about it- mostly from Grudem and Grudem, a father and son team who wrote a book about “Basic Christian Beliefs” and then ruined it with Calvinism. I contrast Calvinism with the Bible, and offer a few suggestions as to why people think they are Calvinists when most of them are not.

I’m giving it away as a free pdf! Enjoy!

Walking Through Romans 9

Posted on March 4, 2026 by A Bit Of Orange

We’re not tip toeing through all of the TULIP today, but rather just looking into the place many Calvinists go to defend the idea of Election – meaning the idea that God decided from eternity past who would have faith and who would not, who would love him, and who would hate him, who would be saved, and who would be damned.

Would it surprise you to learn that this is not what Romans 9 is about? Turns out its about the nation of Israel and the Gospel.

This section is for the next version of The Bible Vs Grudem and Son which I am in the process of updating. Until then, please check out the following walk through Romans 9 and let me know what you think.

A BRIEF WALK THROUGH ROMANS 9

To conclude this chapter, let’s take a brief walk through Romans 9, which is the Calvinist’s central hub for election talk. When they want to prove the Bible teaches Calvinistic election 9 times out of 10 they head here. A deep dive would take MANY pages, so this will be a quick overview, relatively speaking. I’m just going to walk you through the chapter so you can see the clear difference between a Calvinistic interpretation, and a reasonable one.

Thursday Night Nachos UPDATE!

Posted on February 20, 2026 by A Bit Of Orange

Thursday Night Nachos: Defining Evolution to Debunk Darwin

2026 Thursday Night Nachos (Defining Evolution)Download

The original version was downloaded HUNDREEDS of times, but now it’s NEW AND IMPROVED! With not only a bunch of edits to make it read better, but 103 NEW illustrations! This is going to be your favorite book of all time!

This is the story of a bunch of friends who meet on Thursdays for Nachos. They get into an argument about IF Darwinian Evolution is true or false, and they wisely decide that they first need to define Darwinian Evolution so they know what they are arguing about.

They create the world’s first clear and useful definition of Darwinian Evolution, and then examine all of the proposed mechanisms and evidences for it to see if it stands the test of SCIENCE!

It does not.

The ultimate conclusion is, nature can’t make itself, and nature left to nature can’t make the THOUSANDS of species of plant and animal which live on our beautiful earth! We believe “In the beginning, GOD created,” not only because He told us so, but because there is no reasonable alternative!

Jesus Loves you! Now go learn some science and eat some nachos!

We’re Updating Thursday Night Nachos!

Posted on February 17, 2026 by A Bit Of Orange

What is EVOLUTION, and is it real science or history? The fact is, there are dozens of definitions in thousands of textbooks and websites trying to define Darwinian Evolution, and they all fail! So I did the world a favor and created the world’s first CLEAR and USEFUL and ACCURATE definition for Darwinian Evolution!

And once you know what it is, you can see why it fails the test of science.

We’re working on a new version of this book with AMAZING new illustrations, but in the meantime, you can read the original version for free with the link below!

Better than Berkley? Read Evolution 101- FREE!

Posted on December 17, 2025 by A Bit Of Orange

Come with us into a world of Evo-Believers whose faith far outweighs their facts, and a team of PhD’s who have dedicated themselves to Darwinism when in fact they can’t even clearly tell you what it is. Welcome to Evolution 101 (Or, how to make every living thing, from Wolves to Cabbages, using just the tools and bacteria you’ll find around the house).

A Critical Review and some snarky comments by Rent A Friend 2000

Original material including text and images comes from from http://evolution.berkeley.edu/
The site I am reviewing is called Evolution 101, and will be presented by me with no editing (though plenty of editorials) and in those few places where parts were cut out for brevity, I make note of it being done. The original site is a collaborative project between Berkley, the University of California Museum of Paleontology and the National Center for Science Education. That it took this many PhD’s to make this web site will become either unbelievable or incredibly sad later on. Their words will appear in normal font. My words in BOLD, with BOLDNESS nearly approaching ZESTY BUFFALO RANCH BOLD! Nearly.

Enjoy!

My TULIP Book (I Wrote a Book so Calvinists Could Tell me that I Hate the Bible)

Posted on December 17, 2025 by A Bit Of Orange

What is Calvinism, and is it really taught in the Bible? Or is it a terrible, illogical heresy that blasphemes the character and nature of God but manages to stay popular because of teachings being intentionally vague and really good (though misleading) marketing slogans?

Spoilers: It’s that last one.

I tried to get Calvinists to explain it to me so that it didn’t sound Baffling stupid, and I was unsuccessful. Turns out I was asking the impossible. So now you get to read about it. I walk through the doctrines of Calvinism and explain what they are, and why they are very much NOT in the Bible, and why it matters.

Enjoy! It’s also available on our FREE BOOKS page.

The Bible Vs Grudem and Son

Posted on December 9, 2025 by A Bit Of Orange

So Wayne Grudem and his Son Elliot wrote a book about Christian Beliefs, but they crammed their Calvinism into it, which ruined everything.

This has literally nothing to do with Grudem and son, as I don’t know anything about them personally, and I’m sure they have the best of intentions. However, they fail to see the terrible ways in which their Calvinism ruins the basics every Christian should know. So I go through it step by step and explain it all.

I quote them extensively so you can see what THEY had to say, and then I contrast that with what the Bible has to say, and sometimes even with what THEY have to say, because it’s literally impossible to be a consistent Calvinist.

Feel free to download this and send it to the Calvinist on your Christmas list, or maybe use it for that Saturday morning Bible study you go to. It will result in some lively discussion, I can promise you that.

Enjoy!

A Response to Grudem’s Calvinism

Posted on December 8, 2025 by A Bit Of Orange

I’ve written a new book for you! Merry Christmas. You can download it over on the FREE BOOKS tab.

It’s called

The Bible Vs Grudem and Son!

A Response to the Calvinism hidden in
Christian Beliefs: Twenty Basics Every Christian Should Know
by Wayne Grudem, and Elliot Grudem 

By Rent-A-Friend 2000

The content should come as no surprise.

This book was assigned for a middle school Bible class, and I became aware of it because of one of the students in the class. I read through it and decided it needed a response. So, here is my response. In short, Calvinism makes everything worse. 

To be clear, the authors never explicitly say they are talking about Calvinism, they don’t mention “Calvinism” and they don’t refer to “TULIP”. But as you will see, they are sneaking it in, and it ruins everything it touches, as I will explain in detail. 

But once again you get to see Calvinism from the Calvinist so you can see I am not attacking a StrawMan. It matters because of what it does to the doctrines it touches. Enjoy.

5,581 (And YOU can too!)

Posted on December 19, 2024 by A Bit Of Orange

It’s been just over two years since I wrote a post on this channel, and probably longer since I put anything on YouTube. And outside of my immediate family, I don’t think I’ve sold a single book.

However, one of the reasons I haven’t sold any books is that I have left all of them here for free download, and in that time 5,581 people have downloaded my books to enjoy on their own time! And you can too!

Visit https://abitoforange.com/free-books/ and download some wonderful, funderful educational books with great illustrations for free!

Or Visit the A Bit of Orange Bookstore on Amazon to buy actual paper copies, or digital Kindle copies. You’ll find all of the books we’ve worked on over the past couple of years except for this one. I helped design the cover.

Merry Christmas everybody, and remember, Jesus Loves you.
