God preordained, for his own glory and the display of His attributes of mercy and justice, a part of the human race, without any merit of their own, to eternal salvation, and another part, in just punishment of their sin, to eternal damnation. – John Calvin

However many blessings we expect from God, His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts. – John Calvin

A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that Gods truth is attacked and yet would remain silent. – John Calvin
