Like humanism or Marxism, Calvinism is a world-and-life-view with which a man takes a stand in every area of human life. Also, Calvinism involves one with the Church, the instituted Church, and is not only the personal beliefs of the individual; it is through and through ecclesiastical.
Tulad ng humanism at Marxism, ang Calvinism ay isang pananaw-sa-mundo-at-buhay na pinaninindigan ng isang tao sa bawat bahagi ng buhay bilang tao.
