Calvin Enamel Pin (Latin)

Original Sola Gratia Co. design made into a 1.25” hard enamel pin. This silver-toned pin comes with a metal butterfly backing.

The motto John Calvin fondly repeated was “Cor meum tibi offero, Domine, prompte et sincere”; “My heart I offer to You, promptly and sincerely.” This was the conviction and intentionally in which he strived to live and a challenge to us today.

This convicting motto was combined with the imagery of an open hand offering its heart to God in willing and glad submission.

His own words to a colleague:

“When I remember that I am not my own, I offer up my heart, presented as a sacrifice to the Lord…Therefore I submit my will and my affections, subdued and held-fast, to the obedience of God; and whenever I am at a loss for counsel of my own, I submit myself to those by whom I hope that the Lord himself will speak to me.”

“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.”

Roman 12:1
