Sovereign and holy God, who didst bring John Calvin from a study of legal systems to understand the godliness of thy divine laws as revealed in Scripture: Fill us with a like zeal to teach and preach thy Word, that the whole world may come to know thy Son Jesus Christ, the true Word and Wisdom; who with thee and the Holy Spirit livest and reignest, ever one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
On this day, 27 May 1564, the French theologian & Reformer of Geneva, John Calvin, died. He passed away at Geneva where he was living, like most of his life, as an exile from his native France.#ILoveTheReformation pic.twitter.com/IObd1kWN5V
