Doctrine of Faith #41

Study this Passage

  
/ 72  
  

41. Still, to show the nature of faith divorced from charity, and the nature of faith not divorced from it, I wish to communicate something I heard from an angel in heaven. The angel said that he had spoken with many of the Protestant Reformed and heard the nature of their faith. And he reported his conversation with one whose faith was divorced from charity, and his conversation with another whose faith was not divorced from charity, and what he learned from them. The angel said that he asked them questions, which they answered. Because they may shed light on the subject, I wish to present these conversations here.
