10.  For the name of Faith is in the form of speech κατὰ τὴν προσηγορίαν.  Compare Aristotle, Categories, V. 30:  τῷ σχήματι τῆς προσηγορίας.  Cyril’s description of faith as twofold, and of dogmatic faith as an assent (συγκατάθεσις) of the soul to something as credible, seems to be derived from Clement of Alexandria, Strom. II. c. 12.  Compare by all means Pearson on the Creed, Art. I. and his Notes a, b, c. one, but has two distinct senses.  For there is one kind of faith, the dogmatic, involving an assent of the soul on some particular point:  and it is profitable to the soul, as the Lord saith:  He that heareth My words, and believeth Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and cometh not into judgment John v. 24.:  and again, He that believeth in the Son is not judged, but hath passed from death unto life Ib. iii. 18; v. 24..  Oh the great loving-kindness of God!  For the righteous were many years in pleasing Him:  but what they succeeded in gaining by many years of well-pleasing εὐαρεστήσεως , Bened. and Reischl, with best mss.  Milles and the earlier editions have ἐρευνήσεως, “searching.”, this Jesus now bestows on thee in a single hour.  For if thou shalt believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that God raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved, and shalt be transported into Paradise by Him who brought in thither the robber.  And doubt not whether it is possible; for He who on this sacred Golgotha saved the robber after one single hour of belief, the same shall save thee also on thy believing Luke xxiii. 43; the argument is used again in Cat. xiii. 31..
