"Calvin points out that no one can understand the Scriptures unless taught by the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus promised would teach us all things."

Evidently not heeding the Holy Spirit, John Calvin was more than willing to kill those who didn't agree with his interpretation of Scripture or who represented a threat to his political power base.....just like King Herod.
