The Christian view of history is anti-Calvinist: God is not behind or causing everything (citing John 15:25, 'they hated me without cause'), so attributing too much causation to God scapegoats Him; instead history leaves great scope for human freedom and action, and God will not abandon humanity eternally to stagnation under a mild Antichrist.

Evidence Quote

The Christian view is anti-calvinist. God is not behind history. God is not causing everything... God will not leave us eternally staring into screens and being lectured by Greta Thunberg
