5 <p id="TP.i-p1"> Forasmuch as our Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ, in order to "save His people from their sins" (
|
|
|
6 <a class="scripRef" id="TP.i-p1.1" href="./asv.html#Matt.1.21" target="asv">Mat. 1:21</a>), as the angel announced, showed unto us in His own Person the way of truth, whereby we may attain to the bliss of eternal
|
|
|
7 life by rising again, it is necessary, in order to complete the work of theology, that after considering the last end of human
|
|
|
8 life, and the virtues and vices, there should follow the consideration of the Saviour of all, and of the
|
|
|
9 benefits bestowed by Him on the human race.
|
|
|

|
|
|
11 <p id="TP.i-p2"> Concerning this we must consider (1) the Saviour Himself; (2) the sacraments by which we attain to our salvation; (3) the
|

14 <p id="TP.i-p3"> Concerning the first, a double consideration occurs: the first, about the mystery of the Incarnation itself, whereby God
|
|
|
15 was made man for our salvation; the second, about such things as were done and suffered by our Saviour---i.e. God incarnate.
