The Efficiency Of God May Be Understood

Active Creation Is Conceived As A Transitive Action In Which There Is Always Presupposed An Object About Which The Agent Is Concerned; It Is Virtually But Not Formally Transitive Because It Makes, Not Presupposes, An Object.

Everyone Who Understands The Nature Of God Rightly Necessarily Knows That God Is To Be Believed And Hoped In, That He Is To Be Loved And Called Upon, And To Be Heard In All Things.

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.

Nothing Exists From Eternity But God, And God Is Not The Matter Or A Part Of Any Creature, But Only The Maker.
