Perhaps the best way to commemorate John Calvin is to remember the gospel he preached. According to J.H. Merle d'Aubigne, Calvin's teaching centered on Christ-His Word, Person, Grace and Life. Quoting the Reformer's own words, d'Aubigne insists: "Let us give honour to the persons who excel in the fear of God, but on the condition that God remains above all- and that Christ triumphs."
