Matthew W. Kingsbury has been a minister of Word and sacrament in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church since 1999. At present, he teaches 5th-grade English Language Arts at a charter school in Cincinnati, Ohio. He longs for the recovery of confessional and liturgical presbyterianism, the reunification of the Protestant Church, the restoration of the American Republic, and the salvation of the English language from the barbarian hordes.

Calvin's Institutes, Battles edition: pp. 503-507, vol. 1
Calvin begins Book 2, chapter 16 with four remarkable sections on God's love for sinners. Interestingly, he forcefully argues God's love for us preceded his decision to be gracious to us.
Powerful prose, well worth reading and meditating upon.
