Reformed Wisdom

On Acts 6:4 –

“Therefore, pastors must not think that they have so done their duty that they need to do no more when they have daily spent some time in teaching. There is another manner of study, another manner of zeal, another manner of continuance required that they may indeed boast that they are wholly given to that thing. They adjoin thereunto prayer, not that they alone ought to pray, (for this is an exercise common to all the godly), but because they have peculiar causes to pray above all others” – John Calvin, Commentary on Acts, 193-194.
