be_v in_o he_o namely_o the_o godhead_n and_o the_o manhood_n with_o their_o natural_a property_n remain_v unmingled_a everlasting_o and_o neither_o nature_n be_v change_v into_o the_o other_o for_o

for_o we_o believe_v and_o teach_v no_o otherwise_o of_o these_o point_n then_o as_o next_o the_o holy_a scripture_n happy_a d._n luther_n himself_o believe_v and_o teach_v even_o unto_o the_o day_n

the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n god_n together_o with_o the_o outward_a preach_v of_o the_o gospel_n must_v also_o inward_o open_v his_o understanding_n and_o turn_v his_o heart_n to_o christ_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o so_o be_v faith_n nothing_o less_o than_o a_o work_n of_o freewill_n but_o a_o mere_a free_a gift_n of_o god_n which_o gift_n no_o man_n have_v deserve_v of_o god_n it_o so_o be_v that_o all_o man_n be_v sinner_n but_o god_n give_v such_o grace_n free_o by_o grace_n to_o who_o he_o will_n but_o those_o who_o he_o present_o will_v those_o have_v he_o will_v from_o

spring_n even_o the_o everlasting_a foreknowledge_n of_o god_n and_o the_o faithful_a have_v no_o cause_n to_o ascribe_v it_o to_o themselves_o but_o to_o praise_n god_n that_o they_o do_v believe_v the_o unbeliever_n also_o can_v ascribe_v the_o fault_n to_o god_n but_o to_o themselves_o that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v for_o though_o all_o man_n be_v so_o corrupt_v by_o nature_n that_o they_o can_v of_o themselves_o believe_v in_o christ_n yet_o have_v not_o god_n so_o corrupt_v they_o but_o they_o have_v so_o corrupt_v themselves_o see_v that_o through_o the_o devil_n provocation_n they_o fall_v willing_o from_o god_n about_o which_o fall_v no_o man_n have_v cause_n to_o complain_v against_o god_n though_o he_o shall_v leave_v all_o man_n in_o their_o destruction_n and_o unbelief_n together_o and_o therefore_o that_o he_o do_v help_v only_o some_o out_o of_o the_o same_o for_o that_o they_o be_v to_o magnify_v his_o mercy_n and_o not_o to_o dispute_v with_o he_o about_o the_o rest_n but_o when_o as_o one_o desire_v to_o know_v whether_o god_n have_v foresee_v and_o choose_v he_o to_o everlasting_a life_n or_o not_o then_o shall_v he_o not_o search_v into_o the_o secret_a council_n of_o god_n for_o such_o a_o search_a be_v but_o in_o vain_a &_o tend_v to_o no_o other_o end_n then_o to_o serve_v to_o bring_v one_o another_o to_o despair_n or_o indeed_o unto_o fleshly_a security_n but_o when_o one_o desire_v to_o be_v assure_v whether_o he_o be_v ordain_v to_o salvation_n or_o no_o let_v he_o hold_v himself_o to_o the_o reveal_v word_n of_o god_n and_o according_a to_o the_o command_n thereof_o believe_v in_o christ_n &_o repent_v and_o then_o need_v he_o not_o further_o search_n whether_o he_o be_v elect_v to_o life_n everlasting_a or_o not_o for_o all_o
