...THE GENEVA BIBLE written by John Calvin and the Venerable Company of Pastors.

Amazing.

And here I thought Scripture was written by Sts. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, Paul, and the authors of the Old Testament, by the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Here it was a twisted French lawyer all along.

Well then, this would explain a great deal. Maybe the Geneva "Bible" does contain explanations for "sola scriptura" and a section where the Lord makes clear how much He despised His mother and Saint Peter. I'm sure that in the sixth chapter of the Gospel of Saint John He explains that, though it doesn't serve any purpose, on occasion people should eat crackers and grape juice because they are a "symbol" of God.

Thank you. I should have said --

" ......THE GENEVA BIBLE, the words of God translated by John Calvin and the Venerable Company of Pastors who together wrote the footnotes...

See, all things serve God's purpose on these threads and everywhere.

"For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you." -- 1 Corin. 11:19

The reformed trinity of Calvin the father, Luther the son and Zwingli the ghost (nobody talks very much about weird old Zwingli).
