Reformation
John Knox
“Considering myself called of my God to instruct the ignorant, comfort the sorrowful, confirm the weak, and rebuke the proud; by tongue and lively voice in these corrupt days rather than to compose books for the age to come, seeing that so much is written, and yet so little well observed, I decree to contain myself within the bounds of that vocation whereunto I found myself especially called.”
John Calvin
"A perfect faith is nowhere to be found, so it follows that all of us are partly unbelievers."
Martin Luther
"And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us."
Ulrich Zwingli
"Through Christ alone we are given salvation, blessedness, grace, pardon, and all that makes us in any way worthy in the sight of a righteous God."
Jan Hus
"I hope, by God's grace, that I am truly a Christian, not deviating from the faith, and that I would rather suffer the penalty of a terrible death than wish to affirm anything outside of the faith or transgress the commandments of our Lord Jesus Christ."
John Wycliffe
"Do not let friars enter your wine cellars for fear they will bless every barrel and change the wine into blood."
