(e)Sponte faciunt quod lex requirit, fide enim Spiritum receperunt, qui non si•it eo• esse otiosos si caro resistit, Spiritu ambulent. Sic Christianus implet legem, fide: Christus enim perfectio legis est ad salutem omni credenti: f• ris operibus, et remissione peccatorum intus.

(e)Believers of their own accord do what the Law requireth, for by faith they have received the Spirit that suffereth them not to be idle, if the flesh resist, they walk in the Spirit, so a Christian fulfilleth the Law of God by faith,
