Peace to the brethren, and ∴ charitie with faith from God the Father, and our Lord Iesus Christ.
Saint Augustine noteth in sundrie places vpon this same text, that faith without charitie serueth not to saluation. Lib. 50. hom. 7.
As for that faith which is without charitie, we (as we haue often told you) estéeme it not woorth two strawes: otherwise that a true faith onlie and alone iustifieth,* 1.1 Saint Augustine will tell you, if you will vouchsafe to sée it. It is necessarie for a man that not onlie when he is wicked he should be iustified, that is, of a wicked man made iust, when good things are rendered to him for euill: but also when he is now iustified by faith, that grace should walke with him, and he rest thereupon, least he fall. And againe, that Paul should be called from heauen,* 1.2 and be conuerted by so great and effectuall a calling, the grace of God alone was the cause thereof, for his merits were great, but euill.
