CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO.On peace of conscience.
PEACE OF CONSCIENCE is tranquillity of soul in one who believes in Christ, such that he is neither disturbed by the law's threatenings nor broken by adversities, but according to the divine promise surely expects and at last obtains glorious liberation from all that troubles this life.
It arises from faith in reconciliation with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (Rom. 5:1); it is fostered by hope that does not put to shame; it is kept by zeal for a good conscience.
Latin
CAPUT VIGESIMUM SECUNDUM, De pace conscientiae. PAX CONSCIENTIAE est tranquillitas animi in homine credente in Christum, qua fit ut neque perturbetur comminationibus legis, neque frangatur adversis, sed iuxta promissionem divinam liberationem gloriosam ab omnibus quae in hac vita molesta sunt certo expectet tandemque adipiscatur. Oritur a fide reconciliationis cum Deo per D.N.I.C. (Rom. 5:1); fovetur spe quae non confundit; conservatur studio bonae conscientiae.
