The only prob with Grudem's statement about not shrinking back from declaring doctrines on hell, election etc is that those aren't things God will actually ask us in the judgment. But rather he will ask us whether we gave him water when he was thirsty, food when he was hungry, shelter when he was a stranger, visit him when he was in prison... We're not saved by believing in and even declaring unique Calvinist doctrines. Rather the sign of our saving faith is how we treat others.
