In whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in him.
Read Chapter 3
Jerome
AD 420
Nothing can give us such trust in God and purity of conscience … as the Word, the truth, the wisdom and the righteousness received in Christ…. One who thinks in an orderly manner now has the Word and reason as the content of his faith. One who can comprehend wisdom has wisdom as the content of his faith. One who understands truth has truth as the content of his faith. One who lives righteously now has righteousness as the content of his faith. .
Have access, not as prisoners, he says, nor yet, as persons candidates for pardon, nor as sinners; for, says he, we have even boldness with confidence, that is, accompanied with cheerful trust; arising from what source? through our faith in Him.
