| Итог: | John Calvin understood his life to be directly disrupted by a prophetic call of God, similar to the call of God to Luther, Melanchthon, Bucer and others, leading him join their ongoing work of rebuilding and restoring the Catholic Church after it had been ruined by the tyranny of the papacy. Calvin used all his gifts to restore the teaching of Scripture to all the baptized, so that the Creator might be worshipped instead of the creature and so that Christ alone might be glorified rather than our own works. Despite the thorough reform of all aspects of the Church’s life and teaching in Geneva, the goal of all restoration efforts is found in the reform of the lives of believers, and this was the greatest challenge remaining to Calvin when he died. |
