The Audacious Profanation

John Calvin, commenting on Genesis 24:50-51 writes, "As soon as the will of God is made known to us, not only let our tongues be silent, but let all our senses be still; because it is an audacious profanation to admit any thought which is opposed to that will"  -- Calvin's Commentary on Genesis, Volume 2, page 26.

By the way, you can get Calvin's entire set for $130. That's 22 volumes, covering most of the Bible books. If we want to learn God's Word we need the help of gifted teachers. To have the thoughts of Calvin for such a low price is a gift to us. To take a look at the set, go here.
