Calvin's Institutes: July 4

Today’s Readings Podcast Description God’s election is not based on human merit or foreseen works, but on his sovereign mercy alone. In these sections from John Calvin’s Institutes, Calvin shows that Christ’s words and Paul’s teaching in Romans 9 confirm that the Father gives certain ones to the Son, and that this gracious choice stands firm despite human unbelief. This doctrine humbles us and anchors our assurance in the unchanging purpose of God.
