Necessary-to-salvation things are in Scripture — the rest need not be

First our theologians distinguish what is necessary to salvation from what is not.

They hold that Scripture contains what is necessary to salvation. What is not necessary need not, on their view, be in Scripture at all.

Latin

II. Quod ad primum attinet, ante omnia nostri Theologi distinguunt inter ea quae sunt ad salutem necessaria, & ea quae ad salutem necessaria non sunt. Et quidem ea quae sunt ad salutem necessaria Scriptura sacra contineri asserunt. Ea vero quae non sunt ad salutem necessaria, ex eorum mente Scriptura contineri nihil necesse est.
