Theological Theses · §821

Pars II opens: Roman absolute faith is Spirit-moved assent to all God has revealed

Pars II opens the Roman comparison: for Rome's doctors, faith taken absolutely is Spirit-moved and Spirit-inspired assent to everything God has revealed to human beings.

The motive of that assent is the truth and authority of God who reveals.

Latin

I. Fides absolute spectata, secundum Doctores Ecclesiae Romanae, non aliud est quam assensus, Spiritu Sancto movente & inspirante, adhibitus omnibus iis quae sunt hominibus a Deo revelata; idque propter Dei revelantis veritatem & authoritatem.
