John Calvin taught a do it yourself Gospel. If you'll walk to the front of a church and accept God into your heart you will be saved. It is in direct violation of The Bible. John 6-44. No one comes to the father lest the father draw him. Salvation is of the lord lest any man shall boast. Read your bible and wait on the lord.
ANOTHER OPINION:
John Calvin did not teach a do it yourself Gospel. The opposite is true. Calvin taught that all people are depraved ( sinful ) from birth due to Adam's sin, and that salvation from that original sin is a matter of unconditional election apart from human merit. The Holy Spirit draws people to Christ, but those elected to salvation must persevere in the faith. He taught that the church and the state were both created by God for the good of humans and the two institutions should work together amicably to further Christianity.
