One  that began to  me was, whether I had the 
right kind of faith. Old definitions of faith recurred to me, by 
which faith is said to be nothing unless it is informed with 
charity and developed into good works, so that wlien it saith we 
are justified by faith, the part is taken for the whole  ^and it means 
by faith, also , charity, all the graces, and all good works. 

But Brother Martin declared it meaneth simply believing. 
He said,  

"Faith is an almighty , for it giveth glory to God, 
which is the highest service that can be given to him. Now, 
to give glory to God, is to believe in him ; to count him true, 
wise, righteous, merciful, almighty. The chiefest  God 
requireth of man is, that he giveth unto him his glory and divi- 
nity; that is to say, that he taketh him not for an idol, but for 
God; who regardeth him, heareth him, showeth  unto him, 
and helpeth him. For faith saith thus, * I believe thee, O God, 
when thou speakest.*" 

But our great wisdom, he says, is to look away from all these 
questionings,  ^from our sins, our works
