A Personal Theology: a theology defined

This is a Theology “type” spotlight – so to speak.  As a seeker of theological knowledge, I will need to define many terms/phrases/idioms/isms …

Reformed theology:  "A system of religious belief based on the writings and beliefs of Calvin."  Source:  Glossary of Religious Terms
Who is Calvin?  John Calvin (Geneva, Switzerland) July 10, 1509 – May 27, 1564, was a pastor and theologian during what is know as the Protestant Reformation – in which the Protestant Church broke away from the Roman Catholic Church.  See Martin Luther.

Calvinism:
"Strict theological doctrine of the French Protestant church reformer John Calvin (1509-1564) and the basis of Puritan society. Calvin held that all humans were born sinful and only God’s grace (not the church) could save a person from hell."  Source:  An Outline of American Literature by Kathryn VanSpanckeren.
