Calvin on Holiness

Gentlemen,

I have noticed that those on the reformed side (who like Calvin) and who like the emerging church have forgotton one important thing which Calvin has said. This is what Calvin says in his commentary on 2 Peter 1:10

The import of what is said is, that the children of God are distinguished from the reprobate by this mark, that they live a godly and a holy life, because this is the design and end of election. Hence it is evident how wickedly some vile unprincipled men prattle, when they seek to make gratuitous election an excuse for all licentiousness; as though, forsooth! we may sin with impunity, because we have been predestinated to righteousness and holiness!

Really, really bad logic!

Gentlemen,

It has come to my attention that our illustrious institutions that we attended on both the undergraduate and graduate levels are organically and genetically linked to the emerging church...
