Ignatius to the Ephesians
Chapter 14
- 1 None of these things is hidden from you, if ye be perfect in your faith and love toward Jesus Christ, for these are the beginning and end of life -- faith is the beginning and love is the end -- and the two being found in unity are God, while all things else follow in their train unto true nobility.
- 2 No man professing faith sinneth, and no man possessing love hateth. _The tree is manifest from its fruit;_ so they that profess to be Christ's shall be seen through their actions. For the Work is not a thing of profession now, but is seen then when one is found in the power of faith unto the end. CHAPTER 15
