XVII. Of the Righteous and the Wicked ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᏧᏂᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎯ ᎠᎴ ᎤᏲ ᏧnᎸᏫᏍᏓᏁᎯ
We believe that there is a radical and essential difference between the righteous and the
wicked; that such only as through faith are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and
sanctified by the Spirit of our God, are truly righteous in his esteem; while all such as
continue in impenitence and unbelief are in his sight wicked, and under the curse; and
this distinction holds among men both in and after death.
