Dr. Faustus' faulty reasoning and misunderstanding of scriptures is part of what leads him to behave as he does. Read the following lines carefully, and then read Romans 6:23 and 1 John 1:7-9. Stipendium peccati mors est.

Ha!

Stipendium, &c.

The reward of sin is death: that’s hard.

[Reads.]

Si peccasse negamus, fallimur, et nulla est in nobis veritas;

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and

there is no truth in us. Why, then, belike we must sin, and

so consequently die:

Ay, we must die an everlasting death.

What are the discrepancies (differences) between the Bible passage and Faustus' understanding? What does Faustus seem to be missing in his self-knowledge? What are some dangers that might come with misinterpreting scripture? Please explain fully how Faustus' reasoning is incorrect.
