Arminianism Under Elizabeth I, though against her will, the Church of England eschewed ritual and adopted the grim Calvinist belief that God, when creating human beings, had predestined them to either salvation or damnation. The 1590s saw a reaction set in, similar to that which was taking place in Holland under the impetus of Jacob Arminius, and English anti‐predestinarians came to be called Arminians. The Arminians were given only limited advancement by James I, but with the accession of the high‐church Charles I in 1625 they came to dominate the episcopal bench. Charles's identification with them was one of the principal causes of the lack of trust between him and his subjects.
