 | | The case of the Christian Church is entirely of the same description; for as Paul there declares that the Jews are sanctified by their parents, so he elsewhere say s that the children of Christians derive sanctification from their parents. |  | | His eleventh argument is, That in the primitive Church, Christians and disciples were the same; but we have already seen that he argues unskilfully from the part to the whole. |  | | Infants, both Jewish and Christian, comprehended in the covenant. |

 | | Hence we must hold, that whosoever adulterates pure religion (and this must be the case with all who cling to their own views), make a departure from the one God. |  | | But since this shadow of religion (it scarcely even deserves to be called a shadow) is false and vain, it is easy to infer how much this confused knowledge of God differs from that piety which is instilled into the breasts of believers, and from which alone true religion springs. |  | | And it is altogether incredible that those who, in the matter of religion, cunningly imposed on their ruder neighbours, were altogether devoid of a knowledge of God. |

| | Calvin: Institutes of the Christian Religion |
 | | True piety (and hence religion) is bred from a two-fold aspect of the knowledge of God. |  | | In Christians terms, there are some who believe miracles were for the Apostle age and God will not and does not do them today (and if they cannot deny a miracle they attribute it to the devil), and there are some who believe that any "miracle" (however small) must be a special intervention from God. |  | | It is said that when the Christians were thrown to the lions (in the Roman arenas as a form of sport), by their steadfast conviction in what they believed, they actually presented a powerful witness to the spectators. |

 | | The Institutes presents with unmatched clarity a vision of God in his majesty, of Christ as prophet, priest, and king, of the Holy Spirit as the giver of faith, of the Bible as the final authority, and of the church as the holy people of God. |  | | Calvin shared Martin Luther's belief in the Bible as the unique rule for the life of faith and the doctrine of justification by faith alone, but differed from his fellow reformer in defending the subjugation of the state to the church. |  | | Officers and leaders in the church should be those individuals who try responsibly to follow in Christian discipleship, but their authority cannot depend on their righteousness. |

 | | These being the first rudiments of religion, it is the most wretched blindness to charge Christians with arrogance, for presuming to glory in the presence of the Holy Spirit; a glorying without which Christianity itself does not exist. |  | | More clearly to show the utility of this Faith, and the effects resulting from it, the doctrine of Justification by Faith is explained in the Eleventh Chapter, and certain questions connected with it explained from the Twelfth to the Eighteenth Chapter. |  | | The Twentieth Chapter is devoted to Prayer, the principal exercise of faith, and, as it were, the medium or instrument through which we daily procure blessings from God. |

 | | His vehemence stems from his belief that the rationalism of some of the scholastics had displaced God's wisdom, most securely found in the work of the Holy Spirit in the scriptures, as the pinnacle for knowledge of the divine. |  | | (ICR I.viii.1) The power of the scripture is that it carries the gospel, ensured by the Holy Spirit's presence, so that its words can transport the soul. |  | | (ICR I.viii.1) Even those who have attained the intellectual first rank, cannot reach the eminence which is natural to the Gospel. |

 | | It is quite possible for a hard heart to co-exist with theistical belief, and quite possible for a person to awaken to a sense of their wrongdoing and a desire to make amends, without assuming that a personal god is at the back of it all. |  | | Like all of the Reformers, Calvin replaced Tradition with Human Reason, and rejected the Church which Christ founded, replacing it with a man-made institution that interprets scripture in a cafeteria style. |  | | History abounds with atheists who have taught soundly and done good work in many fields, as well as with people who have done evil in the name of religion. |

| | Calvin, John on Encyclopedia.com |
 | | In the Institutes Calvin diverged from Catholic doctrine in the rejection of papal authority and in acceptance of justification by faith alone, but many of his other positions, including the fundamental doctrine of predestination, had been foreshadowed by Catholic reformers and by the Protestant thought of Martin Luther and Martin Bucer. |  | | As a persecuted Protestant, Calvin found it necessary to travel from place to place, and at Angoulême in 1534 he began the work of systematizing Protestant thought in his Institutes of the Christian Religion, considered one of the most influential theological works of all time. |  | | In 1536, Calvin was persuaded by Guillaume Farel to devote himself to the work of the Reformation at Geneva, and there Calvin instituted the most thoroughgoing development of his doctrine. |
