February Quote of the Month

Sorry I have taken ages getting this quote of the Month sorted, my intellectual capabillites arent quite as good as my partner in crime here so have been searching around for one untill last Sabbath night when Uncle Robert came out with a beast quote from John Calvin during his sermon.

The sermon was based upon Jeremiah 23 vs. 28-29, The Power of Gods Word (feel free to listen online any time at http://www.lisburn.rpc.org/) and from the passage, Uncle Robert had explained how Gods word is like 3 different things, Wheat, Fire and a Hammer. When explaining about the Hammer he said how Gods word is used to:

"subdue the depraved affections of the flesh...even in the elect; but it does not break the elect, for they suffer themselves to be subdued." John Calvin
