V. The confession of the trueth cannot be separated from the true faith.
We also believe that true faith can never (when need is) want the true confession of the trueth: 1as saith the Apostle, With the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the ⟨p. 139⟩mouth man confesseth to salvation: And therefore we condemn the Libertines, and others of their crew, that think it is in their own choice to dissemble the trueth in all places, and among all people, and to apply themselves unto any religion.
