Joy and thanksgiving expressed in prayer and praise according to the Word of God are the heart of the Church's worship.
John CalvinWe are not to look to what men in themselves deserve but to attend to the image of God which exists in all and to which we owe all honor and love.
John CalvinBut, as sculpture and painting are gifts of God, what I insist on is, that both shall be used purely and lawfully, that gifts which the Lord has bestowed upon us, for His glory and our good, shall not be preposterously abused, nay, shall not be perverted to our destruction.
John Calvin
