High priests of academia have smeared historic Calvinism with the dung of their unregenerate souls

"The only proper way to interpret the Bible, says Calvinism, is by the Bible itself. What do you do if you come across something you can't understand? You don't go to the church. You don't go to the encyclopaedia. You don't go to the expert or the scholar. You go to the Bible itself, and you lay Scripture beside Scripture, so that by a knowledge of the whole of the Bible one passage will throw light on another passage. The Bible is the Christian's university. The Bible is the Christian's encyclopaedia. The Bible is the Christian's ladder to lead him to the knowledge of God."

From here.

Can you hear the complaints of the experts and the scholars who would lead you first to drink from the deathly foul waters of the Alexandrian manuscripts and the modern versions based on them, then who would tempt you into their chorus of mocking of the Holy Spirit and the fact of regeneration effected by the Word and the Spirit? It's the cacophony issuing from the deep pits of hell.

And see their blood rise and their juvenile pride boil over when you imply their academic attainments are but dung compared to the fear of God and the gift of regeneration.
