Opponent wrongly attacks Le Blanc for denying assurance is justifying faith's formal act
From the Reformed doctrine just unpacked, that learned opponent who charges the Reformed with subverting Christian ethics attacks me without cause — as if my Certainty theses deserted common Reformed teaching.
His grievance: I deny that certain absolute trust that one's sins are already remitted is justifying faith's proper formal act — the condition or instrument of justification before God.
Latin
CXV. Porro ex doctrina Scholae Reformatae, hactenus fideliter & syncere deducta, apparet quam immerito & absque ratione, vir ille doctus & disertus, qui nuper scripsit adversus Reformatos, tanquam Christianam Ethicen subvertentes, operis sui libro decimo, capite quarto, aggressus me sit, ut eum qui communem Reformatorum doctrinam deseruerim, Thesibus ante editis, De Certitudine quam quis habere possit & debeat de sua coram Deo justificatione. Idque quia ibi affirmo fiduciam certam atque absolutam de obtenta a Deo remissione peccatorum, & nostra per Christi gratiam reconciliatione, non esse proprium & formalem actum fidei justificantis, ratione cujus sit conditio, vel instrumentum nostrae coram Deo justificationis.
