"In vain people busy themselves with finding any……" — John Calvin

In vain people busy themselves with finding any good of man's own… - John Calvin

"In vain people busy themselves with finding any good of man's own in his will. For any mixture of the power of freewill that men strive to mingle with God's grace is nothing but a corruption of grace. It is just as if one were to dilute wine with muddy, bitter water."

— John Calvin
