I beleue god beholde heare Gregorie Nazyanzene which in his fyrste boke of the worde of god writeth to beleue in any thing doth properly perteyn vnto the godhead To beleue therfore in god is to beleue and to haue asure confidence in his deuine substaunce and euerlastynge substaunce which hath neyther begynyng nor endynge And god is the name of y e deuine maiesty And for that that we do say more ouer in our beliefe that we do beleue not onelye in god but in god the father it is the beclaration of a greate fayth for he that doth beleue god to be the father to hym is promysed al thyng of god and loketh for all thynge of god for yf the sonne hath a confydence that he shall obteyne all thynge of his yearthly father how mothe more ought we to haue a confydence that we shall obteine all thynges of god the father for why as Christe sayth hym selfe if you which be euyll can gyue your Chyldren good gyftes how moch more royll the father of heauen gyue yf ye shal aske of hym Matthew the 6. Chapter What meaneth this that a christyan man saythe I beleue in god the father almightie Truly nothynge else then I beleue in God and also in god the father which can do all thynge that he wyll to whome there is nothynge impossible And it folweth the maker of heauen and yearth that is to saye I beleue in god whiche hath create heauen and yearthe and all thynge which eyther is sene in heauē or in earth whiche be the sonne the Moone the sterres innumerable the Cloudes the foules the fysshes and all kynde of beastes And god y e father hath not brought fourthe the yearthe naked but garnysshed it with greate varyetie of all thynges corne flowers grasse and with dyuerse kyndes of beastes And we ought not to thynke that god hath onely once created all these thynges with the word for he sayde and they were made whiche we see as well in heauen as in earth and so leaue in creatyng of thynges but we ought to prynte this in our remembraunce that yet God dothe create all thynges in euery momente of the whyche we haue neade of in thys presente lyfe for Christ sayth Ihon the 5. Chapter my father dothe worke euen at thys tyme I also And the C. lxiiij Psalm Thou openynge thy hande all be fulfylled wyth plentyfulnes And god dothe not create as yet soomoche but yet for all that all those thynges whiche haue bene create frome the begynnynge he doth dayly encreace w t hys power yea and also kepe with hys worde and is presente wyth all thynges that be created for so god makethe the pearthe frutefull sendynge rayne frome heauen and kepeth the frutefulnes therof leaste those whiche it bryngeth forth shoulde perysshe wyth anye tempestes but that it shoulde retourne to our vse for that thynge that I saye of the earth I wyll to be spoken also of other thynges Wherefore Saincte Paul saithe to the Collossians the 3. Chapter All thynges stande by hym and in the 2. Chapter Also to the Ephesians the first chap. he doth after the counsels of his wyll Mat. the 10. Two sparowes be soulde for a farthynge and one of them falleth not upon the earth witout the heauenly father But this article in his kinde doth require this thinge that we should beleue in god the father nowe if euerye man will examine him selfe he shal perceiue in hym selfe also many good thynges that be priuate for he shal perceyue that he is a man indewed with reason healthful in his body to haue the power to giue and to receiue and to florisshe in the quickenes of his mēbres can go hither and thither hath a perfecte sighte can heare very wel to get his lyuing But who can reherse those benefites whiche florissheth often tymes in one maner I pray the from whence do they come forsooth euen from God which hath created by his almyghtifulnesse al these thinges and daily doth create and kepeth those that be created and gyueth al thinges Therefore to beleue in God the father is to perswade with his herte that al which thou haste thou hast them of god The firste Epistle to the Corinthians the 5. Chapt. And that god hath for thy cause created al thinges whiche either be in heauen or earth and dailye doth create And thou canst not content thy selfe with these thinges but he also gentely deliuereth the frō al euils And doth adioine vnto the his holy Aungels that they may fight for the againste the assaultes of the deuill And he dothe all these thinges for bicause he is thy father by his onely goodnes and mercie and of none of thy deseruinges And thoumaist thinke to thy selfe that thou shalt haue of him all thinges seing y t he is almightie And thou causte wisshe nothinge or thinke any thinge but straight way if it pleaseth him he may graunt it the. Let vs be thankefull welbeloued chylbren vnto god the father for hys greate goodnesse and mercye towardes vs myserable synners And let vs neuer more dispayer but when we haue so heauenlye a father both gentell mercyfull and allmyghtye which will graunte to all those that doo aske of him aboundauntlye all thynges whiche they shall haue nede of for ye know y t wordes of Christ which I rehersed a lytle before Mathew the 6. chapter if you therfore seyng that ye be euyl do knowe to giue to your chyldrē good gyftes how moch more youre father which is in heauen shal gyue yf youe aske of him So be it The Seconde housholde sermon of the beliefe YE haue harde now welbeloued chyldren what god the father is what we ought to beleue of him the voice that he sente from heauen do declare Now seyng that Ihon in his first epistle the 2. chapter sayth who so euer denieth the sonne he hath not the father And in y e last chapter who so euer hath y e sonne hath lyfe who so euer hath not the sonne of god hath not lyfe furtheremore ye ought to knowe what is y e sonne of god and what we shulde beleue of him ther fore it foloweth I beleue in Iesu Christ the onely sonne of god when I saye I beleue I do not sygnifye onelye that I beleue that Christ is the sonne of god Mathew the 8. chapter for that the denyls of hell do beleue saynte Iames y e 2. Chapter But this I will it to signify that I haue the sonne of god and that those thynges which be spoken of the son of god be turned into y e commoditie vtilite of my doyng and euerie priuate mans for whye This is my very fayth in Iesus Christ which iustifieth a man Those things which truely be spoken of Christ y t he is Iesus for why he maketh safe his people frō their sinnes Matth. y e 1.
