c. the "eternal decree of an all-powerful God."
Calvin taught God's absolute sovereignty and predestination (the "eternal decree"). He rejected selling relics/indulgences, denied salvation by works (instead justification by faith/grace), and did not advocate a strict separation of church and state (Geneva was governed by close church–state cooperation).
