"Now, therefore, we hold faith to be a knowledge of God's will toward us, perceived from his Word. But the foundation of this is a preconceived conviction of God's truth. As for its certainty, so long as your mind is at war with itself, the Word will be of doubtful and weak authority, or rather of none. And it is not even enough to believe that God is trustworthy (cf. Rom 3.3), who can neither deceive nor lie (cf Titus 1.2), unless you hold to be beyond doubt that whatever proceeds from him is sacred and inviolable truth."
Book III, Chapter 3, paragraph 6
