For all those who think that Augustine or Calvin had anything to offer the true believer I must warn you about what I know. Calvin quoted and loved the writings of Augustine, he used them extensively. When we want to call ourselves by a man's name, shouldn't we agree with everything that the man said and did?

It is a violation of the Word of God to call ourselves by a man's name, God stated very plainly in His Word this very fact: 1 Corinthians 1:12-13 "Now I say this that each of you says, 'I am of Paul, or I am of Apollos,' or 'I am of Cephas,' or 'I am of Christ.' Is Christ divided: Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?"

When we say "I am a Calvinist" we are placing Calvin above Christ. When we quote Calvin instead of Christ, we are elevating a man above the level of God.

Augustine was a Catholic through and through. He was a Bishop with immense power and he used it to murder those who would oppose his doctrines. He worshiped and loved Mary above Christ, praying to her and naming her the co-redemptrix.

Prayer of Saint Augustine to the Blessed Virgin
"O blessed Virgin Mary, who can worthily repay thee thy just dues of praise and thanksgiving, thou who by the wondrous assent of thy will didst rescue a fallen world? What songs of praise can our weak human nature recite in thy honor, since it is by thy intervention alone that it has found the way to restoration. Accept, then, such poor thanks as we have here to offer, though they be unequal to thy merits; and receiving our vows, obtain by thy prayers the remission of our offenses. Carry thou our prayers within the sanctuary of the heavenly audience, and bring forth from it the antidote of our reconciliation. May the sins we bring before Almighty God through thee, become pardonable through thee; may what we ask for with sure confidence, through thee be granted. Take our offering, grant us our requests, obtain pardon for what we fear, for thou art the sole hope of sinners. Through thee we hope for the remission of our sins, and in thee, O blessed Lady, is our hope of reward. Holy Mary, succour the miserable, help the fainthearted, comfort the sorrowful, pray for thy people, plead for the clergy, intercede for all women consecrated to God; may all who keep thy holy commemoration feel now thy help and protection. Be thou ever ready to assist us when we pray, and bring back to us the answers to our prayers. Make it thy continual care to pray for the people of God, thou who, blessed by God, didst merit to bear the Redeemer of the world, who liveth and reigneth, world without end. Amen."

How can we place our trust in a man to begin with, and even a man who loved and quoted another man who worshiped idols.

This is a warning to those who think they can venerate men above Christ, God is a jealous God, He said so.
