Ja papin pitää sen polttaman alttarilla, tulen ruaksi Herralle.

The New Jerusalem and its Heavenly Teachings # 116
116. Believing what the Word or the church teaches and not living by it may look like faith, and some may even conjecture that they are saved by it; but the truth is that no one is saved by faith alone. Faith alone is a conviction one deliberately induces in oneself; 1 therefore I need now to describe the nature of such self-induced convictions.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. The Latin term here translated "conviction one deliberately induces in oneself" and elsewhere as "self-induced conviction" is fides persuasiva, literally, "persuasive faith. " On this Latin phrase, see note 1 in New Jerusalem 49. [Editors]
