Therefore, the third, and indeed instrumental, cause of justification is faith, which makes that which was alien by acquisition, become proper by application.
29.This faith, therefore, is considered in two ways: first, absolutely, and in itself, as a certain virtue, habit, and quality; then, relatively, as it regards the promise, looking to Christ as its correlate and object. 30.In its first sense, the power of justification cannot be attributed to faith. In this respect, it is only the work of one commandment of the Decalogue, namely the first; whereas for the justification of man, the fulfillment of not just one but all commandments are required. 31.Furthermore, since it is imperfect when considered in itself, in this regard it rather needs the mercy of God to cover its imperfection than to merit the mercy of God. 32.Thirdly, because even if it were absolutely perfect, it would still be owed, as it is commanded by the law. However, what we are obligated to by debt cannot merit anything before God.[92] 33.Faith justifies insofar as it is considered relatively, or as it looks outside itself to Christ, embraces Him, and apprehends Him.
35.From this, it is clearly evident that faith in justification, as such, regards nothing in man, such that it does not even regard itself, but wholly turns man away from everything in him to Christ alone, as the sole and unique Redeemer of the human race. 36.Therefore, Paul also says that faith is imputed to us for righteousness.[93] Not on account of its own condition, quality, or merit, but on account of the dignity of the one it apprehends. Just as a ring is said to be worth hundreds of gold coins because of the gem it contains, not because the ring itself is worth so much on its own, but because of the gem, which is far nobler and most excellent.

To that end, when files are actively downloading, a new icon now appears in the Search bar that users can tap to view and manage downloads, pause and resume all downloads or just individual items, and select one to increase its priority or view it in a chat. On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. "And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. Update March 8, 2022: EFF has clarified that Channels and Groups are not fully encrypted, end-to-end, updated our post to link to Telegram’s FAQ for Cloud and Secret chats, updated to clarify that auto-delete is available for group and channel admins, and added some additional links. "Someone posing as a Ukrainian citizen just joins the chat and starts spreading misinformation, or gathers data, like the location of shelters," Tsekhanovska said, noting how false messages have urged Ukrainians to turn off their phones at a specific time of night, citing cybersafety.
