Tozer on Geneva

AW TOZER
AW TOZER ON THE FAITH OF OUR FATHERS, THE STRONG PRESSURE OF CHRISTIAN ETHICS AND IDEALS AND JOHN CALVIN'S GENEVA:

"Were the faith of our fathers exercising a major influence in society there would be a revolution in moral values among all Christians and a change in the outlook of multitudes who, while not themselves Christians, would nevertheless feel the strong pressure of Christian ethics around them. So it was in Italy under Savonarola, in Geneva under Calvin, in Germany in the time of Luther, in the England of the Wesleys and on a smaller scale in many places where revivals have broken out in cities and communities over the past century."  (The Price of Neglect. p. 99-100)
