"...all men are both depraved and given over to wickedness [cf. Rom 3:10] but...it is through God's mercy that not all remain in wickedness. Therefore, though all of us are by nature suffering from the same disease, only those whom it pleases the Lord to touch with his healing hand will get well. The others, whom he, in his righteous judgment, passes over, waste away in their own rottenness until they are consumed." John Calvin, Institutes.
