e.g., crucial to countrg the power of Catholicism in 15th c. Europe, Calvin, in his preface to the Institutes, chose to address the earthly king of France as powerful himself relative to (perhaps acceptnc/rejection of) God's will, not (as) unwise in any sense..to intimidate him would've indicatd that powerful Reformers perceived the king as too dense to become a Christian (like them)..a better way? (since) Calvin's global interst originated with concern for France/Frenchmen..the Institutes were not written to condemn the Fr king or his ppl as (e.g.) too stupid to admin the nation macrocosmically as, e.g.,  Calvin'd wanna admin his own baliwick microcosmically relative to th KoG...that'd be like the citizen-tail waggin' the emporer-dog; again, by virtue of common sense, not wise   On Sat, 15 Jan 2005 15:20:02 -0600 "ShieldsFamily" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Please give us Calvin’s take on that G.
