John Calvin: Whenever the subject of our salvation is dealt with, we should remember that it is founded who cannot deceive or lie. Indeed, the only foundation is the unchangeable truth of God.

Titus 1:1-4
Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness, in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by the command of God our Savior;
To Titus, my true child in a common faith:
Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.
