Institutes 3.5.7 — OF THE MODES OF SUPPLEMENTING SATISFACTION—VIZ. INDULGENCES AND PURGATORY.

**OF THE MODES OF SUPPLEMENTING SATISFACTION—VIZ. INDULGENCES AND PURGATORY.**

Those passages of Scripture on which it is their wont falsely and iniquitously to fasten, it may be worth while to wrench out of their hands. Mt. 12:32 ; Mark 3:28 ; Luke 12:10 ; Mt. 5:25 . The French adds the following sentence: “Brief, que le passage soit regardé et prins en sa simple intelligence, et il n’y sera rien trouvé de ce qu’ils pretendent;”—In short, let the passage be looked at and taken in its simple meaning, and there will be nothing found in it of what they pretend.
