Thanks for posting the individual chapters of the Institutes for discussion..keep it up, for this is a great way for people to understand what Calvin really taught - instead of relying on half baked misconceptions of what he taught that keep floating around like contagious flu viruses.

I say let's go forward with the half-baked misconceptions.
They are the real targets.
Shoot them and you shoot the enemy.
Resort to the actual words of John Calvin will be of no help.
There is a report that John Calvin and John Wesley sat down with Luther and Arminius and actually consumed infant children for lunch.
As Bill O'Reilly would say, "What say you?" (And don't give me that often heard trash that they lived at different times and places!)

You're welcome BC. I have never read The Institutes and I am enjoying working my way through them with people who can answer my questions as they come up. ;^)
