We therefore believe God to be just, good, and truthful. Consequently, we maintain that his law has commanded nothing impossible, his testimonies confirm nothing false, and his judgments pronounce nothing unjust. He himself is the creator of human beings, whom he creates liable to no crime, but full of natural innocence and capable of voluntary virtues.

Latin

Ergo Deum et iustum et pium credimus et veracem ac per hoc nihil impossibile mandasse legem eius tenemus, nihil falsum confirmare testimonia, nihil iniquum pronuntiare iudicia, sed ipsum esse hominum conditorem, quos nullo crimini obnoxios creat, verum plenos quidem innocentia naturali, voluntariarum autem virtutum capaces.
