Wherever we find the Word of God surely preached and heard, and the sacraments administered according to the institution of Christ, there, it is not to be doubted, is a church of God.
— John Calvin
Reformation of the Church
May we not equivocate, excuse, or retreat until the Kingdom and greatness of the Kingdom under the whole Heaven and earth are given to the saints of the Most High God. May God grant every form of ignorance and indolence be driven out of the church and that she may drive them from our land. To speak of the reformation of a culture without reformation of the church is sheer folly.
— Joe Morecraft III
The Church
Wherever we see the Word of God purely preached and heard, there a church of God exists, even if it swarms with many faults.
— John Calvin
Church’s Indifference
I believe that if there is one thing which pierces the Master’s heart with unutterable grief, it is not the world’s iniquity but the church’s indifference.
— F. B. Meyer
