  BOOK 3: OF GENERAL CONDUCT: I hold that the broad direction of conduct follows necessarily from belief. The believer does not require rewards and punishments to direct him to the right. Motive and idea are not so separable. To believe truly is to want to do right. To get salvation is to be unified by a comprehending idea of a purpose and by a ruling motive.
  The believer wants to do right, he naturally and necessarily seeks to do right.
