The glory of God shines, indeed, in all creatures on high and below, but never more brightly than in the cross.
John CalvinWe must always speak of the efficacy of the ministry in such a manner that the entire praise of the work may be reserved for God alone.
John CalvinFor Scripture is the school of the Holy Spirit, in which, as nothing is omitted that is both necessary and useful to know, so nothing is taught but what is expedient to know. Therefore we must guard against depriving believers of anything disclosed about predestination in Scripture, lest we seem either wickedly to defraud them of the blessing of their God or to accuse and scoff at the Holy Spirit for having published what it is in any way profitable to suppress.
