Calvinism, established prior to 4000BC!
A rousing cheer for that gospel with the nickname of Calvinism & John Knox from this McTavish Scotsman! It's time to break open the single malt and toast the great land which birthed John Knox.
"Better that Scotland were hacked by Claverhouse for cleaving to the Lord, than that she should be flattered by infidels for her gradual departure from the faith. Let not the blood of the Covenanters be spilt in vain.... Oh, that Scotland may stand fast in this evil day!" - C.H.Spurgeon.
And, better that we Calvinists today were hated by all for cleaving to the Lord and not compromising our faith than we should be excited to offer up Strange Fire. Let not the blood of all our Predestinarian forefathers be spilt in vain, whether the Covenanters or Huguenots or whatever name they may have bourne. Whether England should have put us stocks and sawn off our ears, or we should have been burned alive while worshipping in our churches or hacked by the tens of thousands in the French countryside, let it be known that over a river of blood we march on to Zion.
And in nothing feare your aduersaries, which is to them a token of perdition, and to you of saluation, and that of God. For vnto you it is giuen for Christ, that not onely ye should beleeue in him, but also suffer for his sake,....
(Phi 1:28-29 GB)
