Whereupon we condemne their errour, who boldlie auouch that good workes were, or coulde bee done by profane men, or such, as were not endued with faith, howe just and wise soeuer they were accounted: seeing whatsoeuer is done without faith, is sinne.
7 Although we profess that good works are no less necessarily conjoined with faith, then light with the Sun, or heat with the fire: yet do we not say that they are therefore respected of God, as though by them we deserved; either to be justified before him, or to be made his Children.
7 Although wee professe that good works are no lesse necessarily conjoined with faith, then light with the Sunne, or heat with the fire: yet do we not say that they are therfore respected of God, as though by them we deserued; either to bee justified before him, or to bee made his Children.
8 And they are to be accounted to deal no less impudently then rashly and ignorantly, who raise up the slander that we contemn and reject good works, because we hold that men are justified by faith only.
