¹An. Those which stumble at the truth of God, which they know not, those which blaspheme Christ ignorantly, being endued with this * mind, that they will not quench the truth of God, being revealed unto them, and that they would not with one word hurt him whom they shall know to be Christ the Lord, they sin against the father and the son. But as for those whose conscience is convict, that that is the word of God which they impugn, they are said, to blaspheme the holy Ghost: forasmuch as they wrestle against the enlightening which is a work of the holy ghost*.²
