Propositions and principles of divinity propounded and disputed in the university of Geneva, by certain students of divinity there, under M. Theod. Beza, and M. Anthony Faius ... Wherein is contained a methodical summary, or epitome of the common places of divinity. Translated out of Latin into English, to the end that the causes, both of the present dangers of that Church, and also of the troubles of those that are hardly dealt with else-where, may appear in the English tongue.Propositions and principles of diuinitie propounded and disputed in the vniuersitie of Geneua, by certaine students of diuinitie there, vnder M.

11 These effects are partly carried out of us unto Christ, with whom we are united by faith, and partly they do beget some things within us.
11 These effects are partly caried out of vs vnto Christ, with whome we are vnited by faith, and partly they do beget some things within vs.
12 The outward effects, inasmuch as they do peculiarly apply Christ and his benefits, unto those that believe, are therefore the most excellent, and of greatest account. And they are, both the full remission of all sins, as well original as actual, by the blood of Christ; and also, the bestowing upon us, of all righteousness fulfilled by him, together with the most full restoring and repairing of our nature in the flesh of Christ: All which, are freely by faith in Christ, imputed unto us, who take hold both of him and his gifts.
12 The outward effects, in asmuch as they doe peculiarly apply Christ and his benefits, vnto those that beleeue, are therefore the most excellent, and of greatest account. And they are, both the full remission of all sinnes, as well originall as actuall, by the blood of Christ; and also, the bestowing vpon vs, of all righteousnes fulfilled by him, together with the most full restoring and repairing of our nature in the flesh of Christ: All which, are freelie by faith in Christ, imputed vnto vs, who take holde both of him and his gifts.
13 Another effect of our spiritual joining together with him by faith, is; that he governeth by his holy Spirit, both our understanding & will, being sanctified and brought out of darkness unto that marvellous light; so as we begin to think, to will, and to do, the things that are of God.
