    Whether you agree or disagree with him, John Calvin's ideas strongly influenced the study of theology.

    His 500th year birthday is coming up in July.

    Take the quiz to see what you don't know about him.

    I've read his Institutes and refer to his commentaries quite a bit, but I found myself guessing at every one of those questions. I only got 4 of them right.

    8/10 and feel stupid. Just drove 700 miles each way to the Assoc of Reformed Baptist Churches of America general assemly in Omaha, listening to books on tape (cd) as I drove. One was the bio of Calvin!!

    I knew the answers and blew the test. Sympathy for my students who whined, er, said the same thing!
