““Hall is an older Baptist pastor who lives in Arnsby, near Leicester,” said Skinner. Hall had developed arguments from verses 13 and 14 of Isaiah 57: ‘he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain; And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.’ Hall dealt with stumblingblocks to faith in Christ. But he also criticized the extreme Calvinism that paralyzed many churchmen in an attitude that God had so predestined every happening that men had few choices of their own.””
