I'm sure there's a difference of opinion on this.

Though Calvin appealed to reason itself; writing in the severe, logical style of a trained lawyer, dealing firmly and lucidly with the most basic issues, people are not swayed by reason, rather they are swayed by emotional appeal.

According to R.R Palmer & Joel Colton, Calvin's followers could feel in their own mind they were among the saved, God's chosen few. That is, they didn't have to depend on the Church for their salvation. I think this was his appeal.
