We know these books to be Canonical, and a most certain arule of our faith: not so much because of the common agreement, and consent of the Church, as through the witness, and inward persuasion of the holy spirit, which causeth us to discern them, from the Ecclesiastical books. On which (although they be profitable) we may not ground any article of faith.
