Pelagius — on Rom 4:8 (PELAGIUS'S COMMENTARY ON ROMANS)

“Some people say that sin is forgiven in baptism, covered by penitential works and through martyrdom not counted against us. But others say that when sins have been forgiven in baptism, love for God is increased, which covers a multitude of sins and keeps them from being counted against us as long as daily good works surpass past misdeeds.”
