As far as I have been able to determine, **John Calvin** never created a succinct, ordered list of the steps of salvation (though one could be derived from statements in his *Institutes*). Who was the first Reformed scholar to propose such a concise list and call it the *Ordo Salutis*? Some possibilities that I have seen suggested (by an AI but without sources) are **Zacharias Ursinus** and **Herman Bavinck**. This is a variation on an earlier question: https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/83126/what-is-the-most-authentic-reformed-ordo-salutis
