Hence let us surely hold that if we are admitted and ingrafted into the body of the Church, the forgiveness of sins has been bestowed, and is daily bestowed on us, in divine liberality, through the intervention of Christ's merits and the sanctification of the Spirit.

John Calvin

Spending a few days in this great city.

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

Happiness cannot perish as long as God lives: he is the first and the last; the first of all delights, nothing before him; the last of all pleasures, nothing beyond him: a paradise of delights in every point, without a flaming sword.

~Stephen Charnock

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

But we are men, created in the image of our Creator, whose eternity is true, and whose truth is eternal, whose love is eternal and true, and who Himself is the eternal, true, and adorable Trinity, without confusion, without separation.

~Saint Augustine, City of God

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

As God is, so will the eternity of him be, without succession, without division. The fulness of joy will be always present; without past to be thought of with regret for being gone, without future to be expected with tormenting desires.

~Stephen Charnock

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

The Holy Spirit of God is the Author of all human wisdom, and in particular, of that spiritual and saving knowledge, which makes us Christians.

~Herman Witsius

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

Some may wonder, why Christ is said to be at the right hand. There are no degrees of dignity, where there is a fulness of divinity. Yet Christ sits at the right hand, not that he may be preferred to the Father, but that he may not be considered inferior.

@stephenspin I am so sorry, brother.

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

What hopes of a resurrection to happiness can we have, or of the duration of it, if that God that promised it were not immortal to continue it, as well as powerful to effect it? His power were not almighty, if his duration were not eternal.

Stephen Charnock

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

For God, in regard of his existence, is not only the discovery of faith, but of reason. God hath revealed not only his being, but some sparks of his eternal power and Godhead in his works as well as in his word.

Stephen Charnock, The Existence and Attributes of God

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

Some (doctrines) are so necessary to be known, that all must hold them to be fixed and undoubted as the proper essentials of religion: for instance, that God is one, that Christ is God, and the Son of God, that our salvation depends on the mercy of God, and the like.

John Calvin

[Paul Kalfa @PKalfa]

Let us hold that the Church can only be edified by external preaching, & that there is no other bond by which the saints can be kept together than by uniting with one consent to observe the order which God has appointed in his Church for learning & making progress.
