When God wants to judge a nation, He gives them wicked rulers.
John Calvin (French Theologian, 1509 – 1564)
But hereof be assured, that all is not lawful nor just that is statute by civil laws; neither yet is everything sin before God, which ungodly persons allege to be treason.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
Let a thing here be noted, that the prophet of God sometimes may teach treason against kings, and yet neither he nor such as obey the word, spoken in the Lord’s name by him, offend God.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
I sought neither preeminence, glory, nor riches; my honor was that Jesus Christ should reign.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
I will keep the ground that God has given me and perhaps in his grace, he will ignite me again. But ignite me or not, in his grace, in his power, I will hold the ground.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
A man with God is always in the majority.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
Prayer is an earnest and familiar talking with God, to whom we declare all our miseries, whose support and help we implore and desire in our adversities, and whom we laud and praise for our benefits received. So that prayer contains the exposition of our sorrows, the desire of God’s defence, and the praising of His magnificent name, as the Psalms of David clearly do teach.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
The Scriptures of God are my only foundation and substance in all matters of weight and importance.
John Knox (Scottish Theologian, 1513 – 1572)
