Roman concessions — necessary-to-salvation truths clear in Scripture; rest at least virtually

Rome concedes in turn: whatever is simply necessary for every person's salvation, and whose explicit faith each believer must hold, stands clear and open in Scripture.

They also grant that whatever is needed for faith-and-morals doctrine is at least in Scripture virtually and implicitly, and can be drawn by good consequence.

Latin

XXII. Vicissim vero Doctores Ecclesiae Romanae nobis concedunt, omnia quae sunt omnibus simpliciter ad salutem necessaria, & quorum fides explicita a fidelibus singulis exigitur, in Scriptura clare & aperte haberi. Ac praeterea nobis largiuntur omnia quae necessaria sunt ad doctrinam fidei & morum in Scriptura saltem virtute & implicite contineri, & ex ea posse per bonam consequentiam deduci.
