THis faith is not borne with vs neither groweth it out of our corrupt nature nor is bought with earthly treasure nor attained vnto by the labour and industrie of man but is the free and gracious gifte of GOD vnto his children whom he loued frō before al beginnings wrought in their heartes by his spirite through the preaching of the Gospel Which spirit is therefore called the spirit of adoption because it beareth witnes vnto our spirits that we are the children of God and heires of his kingdome teaching vs with boldenes confidence to crie Abba father and the Gospel preached is called the arme of the Lorde and the mightie power of God vnto saluation The grounde and foundation of our faith is the worde of God especially that part thereof which contayneth his moste louing promises made vnto vs in Jesus Christe This woorde was geuen vnto man from heauen firste by the Lord himselfe speaking vnto the Fathers in his owne person then by the ministery of his holy angels after by his seruauntes the Prophetes Last of all by his owne Sonne in whome are all the treasures of wisedome and knowledge hidde This worlde remaineth vnto vs in the recordes of the olde and newe Testament which bookes were written by the holie men of GOD his Prophetes and Apostles inspired by the holy Ghost is profitable to teach to confute to reprooue to instructe in all righteousnesse that the man of God may be perfect and perfectly instructed vnto euerie good woorke contayning all thinges necessarie for vs to knowe vnto eternall life from whiche we may not take any thing neither put anie thing vnto it This worde is plaine and easie to bee vnderstood of them that desire to doe the will of God and seeke after wisedome in humilitie
