Latin

X. Samuel Maresius in Systemate, loco undecimo, fidem dicit esse Donum, quo promissionibus Evangelii in Christo, tanquam veris & certis acquiescimus, easque nobis fiducialiter applicamus. Quibus concinit Wendelinus in Academia Anhaltina Theologiae Professor notissimus, docens, fidem esse id quo electi credunt divinae veritati, & firmae voluntatis affectione promissiones gratiae salutaris in Christo accipiunt, sibique Christum cum omnibus beneficiis ejus ad vitam aeternam applicant. Christianae Theologiae lib. 1. cap. 24. Thesi 4. Nec absimilis est definitio Henrici Altingii olim in Academia Heydelbergensi Professoris, cui fides est, Cognitio gratiae Dei in Christo Redemptore, & ejusdem fiducialis apprehensio, qua quisque fidelis illam sibi singulariter applicat. Locor. commun. parte 1. pag. 117.
