  • TREATISE on RELICS by John Calvin
    THE AGES DIGITAL LIBRARY THEOLOGY TREATISE ON RELICS by John Calvin B o o k s F o r Th e A g e s AGES Software • Albany, OR USA Version 1.0 © 1998 2 TREATISE ON RELICS. BY JOHN CALVIN, Newly Translated From The French Original With An Introductory Dissertation On The Miraculous Images, As Well As Other Superstitions, Of The Roman Catholic And Russo-Greek Churches. TO THE PROTESTANTS OF GREAT BRITAIN AND OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THIS LITTLE WORK IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED BY THE TRANSLATOR. 3 PREFACE. THE Treatise on Relics by the great Reformer of Geneva: is not so generally known as it deserves, though at the time of its publication it enjoyed a considerable popularity.F1 The probable reason of this is, that the absurdity of the relics described in this Treatise has since the Reformation gradually become so obvious, that their exhibitors make as little noise as possible about their miraculous wares, whose virtues are no longer believed except by the most ignorant part of the population of countries wherein the education of the inferior classes is neglected. And, indeed, not only Protestants, but many enlightened Roman Catholics believed that all the miracles of relics, images, and other superstitions with which Christianity was infected during the times of mediaeval ignorance would be soon, by the progress of knowledge, consigned for ever to the oblivion of the dark ages, and only recorded in the history of the aberrations of the human mind, together with the superstitions of ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Unfortunately these hopes have not been realized, and are still remaining amongst the pia desideria.

Christ is risen! Indeed, He is risen! Today my brothers and sisters in Christ, we commemorate Saint Celidonius who was blind from birth. He was born without eye sockets and eyes; undoubtedly, the LORD could have healed the blind man by just commanding the healing with His Word. Instead, the LORD made mud from the ground with His saliva and placed it on the eyes of Saint Celidonius. By this, the Evangelist showed the Jews and shows us that the Word of God, without Whom “nothing was made that was made” (John 1:3), “the LORD God who formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life” (Gen 2:7), was dwelling (tabernacling; Jn 1:14) among His people, restoring His creation made ill by sin to the image of God. He commanded the man to wash in the pool of Siloam for the healing to be accomplished, and the blind man obeyed. By this prophetic action, the Evangelist brings to our attention the baptismal waters by which the LORD illumines us and begins the process of restoring in us the image of God: the Church calls this Theosis. Saint Celidonius received healing because he obeyed the LORD, and his cooperation with the LORD is what the Church calls synergy. Brothers and sisters let us cooperate with the LORD through prayer, fasting, almsgiving and participation in the life of the Church as He works daily to restore the image of God in us! Tone 5 Troparion (Resurrection) Let us, the faithful, praise and worship the Word, co-eternal with the Father and the Spirit, born for our salvation from the Virgin; for He willed to be lifted up on the Cross in the flesh, to endure death, and to raise the dead//by His glorious Resurrection.
