John Calvin AD 1509-1564

When God Elects one and rejects another, it is owing not to any respect to
the individual, but entirely to His own mercy which is free to
display and exert itself when and where He pleases...in order
to humble the Pride of the Flesh.

Since God places your salvation in Himself alone,
why should you descend to yourself?
Since He assigns you His own Mercy alone,why will
you recur to (return to or continue to rely on) your own merits?
