of the light: as the soule of the body, and the body of the soule. Seeing then that both the one & the otherdoth a∣uaile to saluation, without doubt a man ought to haue them both: a true faith with works, & the works of ver∣tue through faith; and a man ought to beleeue without doubting, for doubt and perplexity in faith, is no faith: for that which is proued by arguments, though once receiued, is examined more profoundly by searching: But the simplicity of faith is more firme then the de∣monstrations of reason: and those things which are be∣leeued without arte, are more strong then those that are artificiall, without all comparison. For if one sound the depth of Faith, she is tossed to and fro; but if she be considered in her simple disposition, she remaineth sted∣fast. It being then most certaine, and not to be doub∣ted, that a man must beleeue without Doubting, It re∣maineth here onely, that we must with all our might seeke and find in some fashion, what that is? be∣cause that we ought to apply our selues to obtaine sal∣uation: for faith without workes, and workes without faith, are equally reiected of God.
The booke called Dioptra.s 1.2 Thou didst discend (O Lord) thou hast taken flesh to saue all men, preserue me by thy grace, I beseech thee: for if thou shouldest preserue me by my workes, the same should not bee reputed grace. For thou (my Lord Iesus Christ) hast sayde: he that beleeueth in mee shall liue, and shall neuer see death. Let faith be imputed to me in stead of workes for to iustifie me: but let that faith suffice me for all. It is faith that will absolue me, it is faith that will iustifie me, it is faith that will make me partaker of eternall glo∣rie,
