The Passive Receiving Of Christ

Although The Whole Man Partakes Of This Grace, It Is First And Most Appropriately In The Soul And Later Progresses To The Body, Inasmuch As The Body Of The Man Is Capable Of The Same Obedience To The Will Of God As The Soul.

Hearing The Word Is The Devout Receiving Of The Will Of God.

Hence The End Of The World Should Be Awaited With All Longing By All Believers.

The Starting Point Of Sanctification Is The Filthiness, Corruption, Or Stain Of Sin.

Therefore, The Church Is Not Absolutely Necessary As An Object Of Faith, Not Even For Us Today, For Then Abraham And The Other Prophets Would Not Have Given Assent To Those Things Which Were Revealed To Them From God Without Any Intervening Help Of The Church.
