	Tulip - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tulips do not flower in midwinter even in the warmer climates of the Middle East, and therefore Busbecq (who wrote and dated his letters as a collection after his expedition) must have been misremembering the date of a journey he took through the same area in 1558.
		Tulip Festivals are held in the Netherlands and in North America every May. Tulips are now also popular in Australia, and several festivals are held during September and October in the Southern Hemisphere's spring.
		Tulips cannot be grown in the open in tropical climates, as they require a cold winter season to grow successfully.

	Calvin's TULIP
		The aforementioned "TULIP" was fashioned at the Synod of Dordt (Dordrecht) in the early 1600s only in REACTION to five assertions of the Arminians (the "Remonstrants" or Dutch "semi-Pelagian" protesters).
		This distinction is vital to understanding TULIP: ELECTION is God's eternal decree, outside of time, of who will have faith in Christ and thereby become a member of His body and thus be spotless and righteous and obtain eternal life; in contrast, SALVATION is God's historical outworking of this decree in time.
		In a word, the unregenerate, fleshly person is TOTALLY UNABLE (= "T" of "TULIP") to do any spiritual good--he or she can't even co-operate or work "synergistically" with the Holy Spirit (hence Calvinism teaches a pure monergism, as did St. Augustine).
