CHURCH HISTORY II Lesson 6 “We are not our own” The life of John Calvin “You are not your own, you are bought with a price. Therefore honor God with you body” I Cor 6:19-20

“Calvin was one of those strong and consistent men of history who people either liked or disliked, adored or abhorred.“ -- Lewis W. Spitz, Lutheran Historian Calvin has, I believe, caused untold millions of souls to be damned…“ -- Jimmy Swaggart, Preacher “The longer I live the clearer does it appear that John Calvin’s system is the nearest to perfection.”-- Charles Haddon Spurgeon, “But we shall always find it hard to love the man [Calvin] who darkened the human soul with the most absurd and blasphemous conception of God in all the long and honored history of nonsense.“-- Will Durant, Historian “Taking into account all his failings, he [Calvin] must be reckoned as one of the greatest and best of men whom God raised up in the history of Christianity.“ -- Philip Schaff, Historian [Calvin was] the “cruel” and “the unopposed dictator of Geneva.” -- Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church “The strength of that heretic [Calvin] consisted in this, that money never had the slightest charm for him. If I had such servants my dominion would extend from sea to sea.“ Pope Pius IV, Roman Pontiff at time of Calvin’s death
