The answer.
You wrangle for inherent iustice without all reason, Christ (you saie) dwelleth in vs by his gifts, and we are iust by those his gifts. The gift that Christ dwelleth in vs by, is faith, as S. Paul here telleth, and you assume that thereby we are iust, ther∣fore we conclude that we are iust by faith. Therefore you must either confesse your manifold wrangling heretofore, in reiecting iustification by faith alone, bicause it is against your imagined inherent iustice, or else you must confesse that you do but cauill héere, when you go about to prooue inherent iustice, bicause Christ dwelleth in vs by faith.
