“The word ‘righteousness’ should always be ringing in our ears, since righteousness is what we stand for. And righteousness, above all, means defending the honour of God’s name, and imprinting forever on our hearts the witness we owe to Jesus our Lord.”
–John Calvin, Sermons on the Beatitudes, trans. by Robert White (Carlisle, PA.: Banner of Truth, 1562/2006), p. 63.
