made anewer, ' Yea, Lord ; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God, which hast come into this world.'1 3 So also the Apostle says ; ' With the heart man believeth unto righteousness ; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.'14 Also, at the end of his Epistle15 Saint Peter says (we are better able to commit to memory what we find said at the conclusion of a discourse) ; ' But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.' And whereas these heretics boasted that they do not lie, we affirm that clearly they do lie. Por there is falsehood in being silent as well as in speaking. It was for this that Saint Paul boldly withstood Saint Peter" to the face, because he practised circumcision. Por it seemed to Saint Paul that he could not reveal the truths of the Gospel, because he preached one thing and believed another. For truth consists in three things, in the heart, in the words, and in the works. He speaks the truth who expresses in the articulation of his voice what are his feelings, and who holds the same in his heart, confesses it with his lips, and performs it in his works. " On the third head, we do also convict and adjudge them to be heretics, upon the authority of the New Testament. For we say, that it is the wish of God that every man should be saved. Nor, indeed, would Christ have been crucified for all, if only the older ones were to be saved, who to original sin have added actual sin, and if infants were not to be saved, whom God has created and formed in His own image and likeness, and who have probably never committed any sin, but have only contracted original sin. For baptism was generally given unto all, both old and young, as the Lord says to his disciples, ' Go ye, teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.'17 And ' Except a man be born again of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.'1 8 And again, the Lord says, ' Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not."9 This indeed he said for two reasons. For one, because those who wish to be saved must become as little 13 14 15 St. John xi. 26, 27. Romans x. 10. 1 Pet. iii. 15.
