The doctrines of original sin, election, and effectual calling, final perseverance, and all those great truths which are called Calvinism? though Calvin was not the author of them, but simply an able writer and preacher upon the subject? are, I believe, the essential doctrines of the gospel that is in Jesus Christ. Now, I do not ask you whether you believe all this? it is possible you may not; but I believe you will before you enter heaven. Charles Spurgeon
