Statement |
|
|
We believe a man to be not simply justified through faith alone, but through faith which works through love, that is to say, through faith and works. ...
But we regard works not as witnesses certifying our calling, but as being fruits in themselves, through which faith becomes efficacious, and as in themselves meriting, through the Divine promises, that each of the faithful may receive what is done through his own body, whether it is good or bad.
