to do in thy vocation," etc. This is the only practice in Divinity.
Also, Mystica Theologia Dionysii is a mere fable, and a lie, like to
Plato's Fables. Omnia sunt non ens, et omnia sunt ens-All is
something, and all is nothing; and so he leaveth all hanging in
frivolous and idle sort.

True and upright Divinity consisteth in the practice, use, and
exercise; her foundation is Christ; she taketh hold by faith on his
passion, death, and resurrection. All those, said Luther, that
concur not with us, and have not this doctrine before their eyes,
the same do feign unto themselves but only a speculated Divinity,
according to their carnal sense and reason, and according as they
use to censure in temporal causes; for no man can divert them from
these opinions, namely, "Whoso doth good works, and liveth an honest
and civil kind of life, the same is an upright Christian, and he is
well and safe;" but they are therein far deceived; for this is the
truth indeed, "Whoso feareth God and trusteth in him, the same most
surely will be well and safe at last."

Therefore, said Luther, these speculating Divines belong directly to
the devil in hell. They follow their own opinions, and what with
their five senses they are able to comprehend; and such is also
Origen's divinity. But David is of another mind; he acknowledgeth
his sins, and saith, "Miserere mei Domini," God be merciful to me a
sinner. At the hands of these sophisticated Divines, God can
scarcely obtain that he is God alone; much less can he find this
favour of them, that they should allow only him to be good and just;
nay, very hardly will they yield that he is an immortal God.
