I could say that to you personally Lance because from
what you write, you don't believe there is such a thing as objective

However, in evaluating Calvin or anyone else who

Bible calls them "elders" - yes they are to be "examples" to

On Wed,
I would say Amen to your conclusion since Calvin did
not obey God's Word in his own life and could not be an example to others in
that way. Calvin was not primarily a follower of Christ. He was
drinking from a polluted stream which was that of Augustine. Calvin called
himself an Augustinian
As to your Calvin/Augustine connection,
Amen!Sadly, IMO, there is not one on TT, though perhaps to a lesser
extent, who has not abused their position of power over others on some
occasions. (As husband, wife, sibling, office holder in a believing group,

I would, with the addenum that the ppl you mention
below usually run over others to benefit themselves which
is natural for a man walking after the flesh -
but they do not do this "in God's name" or as an ambassador of
"Christ"
and usually the outcome is not beheading others or
burning them

You might oughta check your reference, Judy. The
word is episkopos --fromepi, "over";
skopos, "seer" -- translated "bishop" in the KJV.

Judy, elders and bishops are the same thing in Scripture. The passage
that Bill quotes is "bishop" in the KJV. I thought that was the version of
your Bible.
You still don't get the situation in Geneva. John Calvin was brought
to Geneva to help them organize a "reformed" church. Calvin
