Martinus Lutherus in Enchiridio Piarum Precationum De tribus Symbolis, &c. IPsà recomperi, & in omnibus Historiis universi Christianismi hoc animadverti, quod quicunque principalem illum Christianae fidei Articulum de IESV CHRISTO, verè & incorruptè tum crediderunt tum docuerunt, hi posteà in vera Christianâ fide tutò ac firmiter perstiterunt; Et licet suos quosdam errores & sua peccata habuerint, sunt illi tamen ad extremum servati.

WHat by mine own experience, and what by Church Hi∣stories of all Ages and Nations, I have certainly found and observed that as many as truly and syncerely have both be∣leeved and taught this main Article of the Christian faith con∣cerning JESUS CHRIST, those have continued safe and sound in the Christian faith; and though perchance for a while they have had their errors and their infirmities, yet at the last they have dyed good Christians.

Ephes. 1.6.〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.

Hugo Grotius ibi: Sicut in veteri lege non obtinebatur venia eorum quae in eo statu veniam accipere poterant, nisi cruentâ mor∣te victimae; ita in novo foedere remittit Deus peccata credentibus in Christum, ideo quia Christus id suâ morte cruentâ, quippe sacri∣ficio perfectissimo, Deoque gratissimo, pleno obedientiae, demissionis, dilectionis & patientiae, ab ipso nobis impetravit. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, est plenissima liberatio, à reatuscilicet. quanquā autem vox 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 tralatione quadam (quod vulgò excipiunt & objiciunt Sociniani, scilicet) ad liberationem quamvis referri interdum solet; in hoc tamen argumento talem intelligi liberationem quae non sine magno impendio fiat, ostendit locus Matth. 20, 28. ubi Christi vita nobis impensa 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, redemptio, dicitur.
