26. That it is of small account to be
baptized and to receive the Eucharist, unless one profit by it both in
deeds and works.
In the first Epistle of Paul to the
Corinthians: “Know ye not, that they which run in a race
run indeed all, although one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye
may obtain. And those indeed that they may receive a corruptible
crown, but we an incorruptible.”4358
In the Gospel according to
Matthew: “Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit
shall be cut down, and cast into the fire.”4359
Also in the same place:
“Many shall say unto me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in Thy name, and in Thy name have cast out devils, and in
Thy name have done great works? And then shall I say to them, I
never knew you; depart from me, ye who work iniquity.”4360
Also in
the same place: “Let your light shine before men, that they
may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven.”4361
Also
Paul to the Philippians: “Shine as lights in the
world.”4362
