Reaching Geneva in October 1532, Farel (described in a contemporary monastic chronicle as "un chétif malheureux prédicant, nommé maistre Guillaume") at once began to preach in a room of his lodging, and soon attracted "un grand nombre de gens qui estoient advertis de sa venue et déjà infects de son hérésie."

 Vie de Guillaume Farel - 1932
Guillaume, qui parait avoir été l'avant-dernier, naquit en 1489.
Guillaume était aussi crédule que ses parents; on lui enseigna, comme il le dit lui-même, à prier tant de saints et d'anges, que son esprit devint comme un temple d'idoles et qu'il était semblable à un calendrier ambulant des jours de saints et de jeûnes.
Le petit Guillaume aimait à réfléchir, il aura pu se demander s'il était louable pour une femme de désobéir à son mari, et s'il pouvait être mal de mentir puisque les saints en donnaient l'exemple.

Farel le révérait à l'égal d'un dieu et cependant Llorente, dans sa Vie politique des papes, nous dit que Jules II était un « prodige de vice », qu'il était « abhorré par les Italiens qui le regardaient comme un monstre féroce, sanguinaire, batailleur, turbulent, ennemi de la paix ».
Guillaume Farel prêchait à Meaux, faisant retentir « sa voix de tonnerre » partout, dans les rues, sur les marchés, dans les salles qu'on lui prêtait.
Farel aurait pu dire de lui que c était la prudence de la chair; mais si Zwingli a trop cédé à la prudence charnelle, Farel n'a pas toujours su se garder du zèle et de l'énergie de la chair.

This translation of Henri Heyer's thesis for his licensure, originally written in 1872, takes issue with the pervasive interpretation that Farel was a zealot rather than a theologian.
On the basis of largely unpublished sources, Heyer provides a critique of Farel's theological development both before and after his encounter with Calvin, arguing that he was a systematic thinker who did in fact provide well-articulated doctrines of the Trinity, baptism, predestination, and Communion.
Farel knew and interacted with such reformers as Zwingli, Bullinger, Oecolampadius, Capiton, Bucer, Myconius, Luther, Melancthon, and of course, Calvin.
