Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ, by faith, and not for our owne workes or deseruings. Wherfore that we are iustifyed by faith only, is a most wholsome doctrine, and very full of comfort. Luther,(12) Nothing else is required to Iust••fication, but to heare, and belieue Iesus Christ our Sauiour. And,(13) A Christian needeth no works for this that he may be iust and saued. Perkins,(14) The doctrine which dreameth of Iustification by workes bringeth in Idolatry. And,(15) It is false & ridiculous, that we are iustifyed by workes. Whitaker,(16) That our doctrine is most true and most holy, Man to be iustifyed only by faith. So that euen Charity by these men is excluded from being any Cause of our Iustification.
