§. XII. So far we have finished the first member of this first Annotation — the nature of the Augsburg Confession itself.

Next, under the second member, we treat briefly, as our plan requires, of that Confession's theologians and associates in the broad sense.

First we distinguish those so called loosely from those so called strictly.

Ubi omnium primò distinguendum arbitramur, inter Latè & Strictè sic appellandos.
