Mark diligently therefore seeing we are come to answer. The Scripture (because of such dreams and feigned faiths sake) useth such manner of speakings of works, not that a man should thereby be made good to Godward or justified, but to declare unto other, and to take of other the difference 1between false feigned faith, and right faith. For where right faith is, there bringeth she forth good works, if there follow not good works, it is (no doubt) but a dream and an opinion or feigned faith.
