Then our Faith cannot be the proper object of our faith, or confidence; we cannot trust in our trusting, nor believe in our faith, nor be confident in our confidence: for it is not Faith which saves properly, but Christ. It is true, we are often said to be justified by Faith: But the meaning is, by Faith, cum suo correlato, as Divines express it, i.e. by Christ believed on, and so set in opposition unto works. We are justified by Faith, i.e. by Christ believed on; and not by works, which was the question then in debate.
