Not illustrated. 1849 edition. Excerpt: ...for one and the same; even as one and the same man is true and living, and as true and living man is so termed from his soul or form, so also true or living faith is so termed from her soul or. form, which consists in full assurance and trust, as we have said, without which faith is nothing else but a carcase, even as a man without a soul is not so much a man as a carcase and dead body.

" As the body is to the soul, so is faith unto works; but the body, without the soul, is a true body, albeit not living; therefore faith, without works, is a true faith, although not living." I answer, that this is a sophistical argument; for the comparison of the body and faith, which James maketh, is not in the truth, but in the death of them; and James assumes and concludes out of that proposition: But the body without the spirit is dead; wherefore, also, faith without works is dead. For between faith and the body this is the difference; one and the same body may be dead andtrue, but faith is not both true and dead, even as a man is not both true and dead; for as a man is a compound thing, of his body and his soul, so faith is a certain compound thing, as it were, of her body and of her soul, the tokens or signs whereof are the actions. Wherefore, in James the comparison is made between a simple and a compound; the simple thing, which is the body void of the soul; the compound, which is faith. And the comparison is of force in that wherein it is made; namely, in the death of both, and not in other things. And so much of justifying faith, according to the opinion of our adversaries, as also of the whole doctrine of faith. 1 Deinde comparat...
