John Calvin: Reformer and the Reformation of the Church
Our speakers in this 500th year from Calvin's birth will focus on his work as reformer (Mr. Duncan) and on the reformation of the church itself (Mr. Johnston).
Some may ask why have a conference devoted to the
work of a mere man? It is surely a fair question, even
when that man is John Calvin. We honor the message
and labors of this one whom God brought into the
world half a millennium ago and whom he prepared
and sent out to live and speak as an example of God's
heavenly purpose to transform the lives of helpless
sinners by his word and Spirit and to advance the
gospel and godliness throughout the world. The
results of Calvin's life and work have been felt in
countless ways, but in this conference we focus on
these two aspects. "The memory of the righteous is a
blessing." Proverbs 10:7
Please tell others about the conference, offer
to bring them and then come and join us for
this year's feast of good things as we sit at the
banquet of love that has been spread by our
Lord Jesus Christ.
