Heavenly Abuse

Doumergue apparently has a list of abusive terms employed by Calvin! (Reid, Calvin’s Theological Treatises, p16) Sadly some of his contemporaries commented that they would rather be in hell with Beza than in heaven with Calvin (Reid, p18). Its obvious they didn’t know what they were talking about and they will, of course, have changed their tunes. Although, perhaps they will ever say, better to “rule” in hell than serve in heaven.
