wherefore_o this_o article_n of_o the_o divine_a substance_n and_o of_o the_o three_o person_n must_v be_v learned_a and_o exercise_v in_o daily_a prayer_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o sincere_a

i_o say_v the_o people_n must_v be_v call_v back_o from_o such_o ydolotrye_n unto_o the_o true_a and_o religiouse_a invocation_n of_o god_n as_o to_o a_o most_o godly_a work_n and_o principal_a worshyp_v of_o god_n wherein_o we_o chief_o learn_v and_o feel_v which_o be_v the_o true_a faith_n yea_o this_o be_v the_o only_a work_n whereby_o the_o true_a people_n of_o god_n may_v be_v most_o

in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v with_o a_o sure_a and_o lyvely_a faith_n in_o this_o knowledge_n the_o chief_a point_n be_v to_o know_v that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o make_v all_o thing_n and_o preserve_v and_o govern_v the_o same_o alone_a wherefore_o the_o preacher_n shall_v study_n to_o declare_v to_o the_o people_n with_o singular_a diligence_n and_o to_o beat_v into_o their_o head_n those_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o teach_v and_o testify_v of_o the_o eternal_a substance_n of_o god_n of_o his_o power_n knowledge_n goodness_n and_o severity_n for_o without_o this_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n we_o can_v never_o true_o and_o effectuous_o feel_v our_o sin_n much_o less_o repent_v and_o amend_v ourselves_o neither_o shall_v the_o law_n alone_o

nothing_o substantial_o and_o effectuose_o wherefore_o he_o that_o will_v come_v to_o god_n must_v necessary_o know_v afore_o hand_n and_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o make_v preserve_v and_o judge_v all_o man_n and_o large_o reward_v they_o that_o love_v he_o very_o many_o boast_v themselves_o to_o know_v god_n but_o in_o that_o that_o they_o studi_fw-la not_o to_o frame_v their_o

partly_o ordain_v they_o to_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o health_n both_o of_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n wherefore_o the_o preacher_n shall_v often_o allege_v faithful_o declare_v and_o print_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o their_o herer_n those_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o teach_v that_o god_n make_v we_o and_o all_o other_o thing_n of_o no_o thing_n and_o that_o we_o be_v fashion_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n final_o that_o inferior_a creature_n be_v subject_n unto_o our_o rule_n by_o god_n ordinance_n and_o that_o the_o superior_a creature_n be_v appoint_v to_o procure_v our_o

be_v good_a work_n to_o be_v do_v ¶_o answer_n first_o because_o god_n have_v command_v they_o all_o creature_n serve_v god_n and_o be_v make_v to_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n it_o be_v evident_a then_o that_o seinge_v that_o man_n ought_v to_o show_v obedience_n unto_o god_n god_n commandment_n be_v the_o first_o &_o chief_a cause_n why_o we_o shall_v do_v good_a work_n and_o in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v command_v good_a work_n it_o follow_v of_o the_o same_o cause_n that_o they_o that_o exercise_v not_o themselves_o in_o well_o work_v but_o continue_v in_o the_o contempt_n of_o god_n commanndemente_n deserve_v everla_a pain_n how_o be_v it_o god_n punish_v sin_n in_o this_o life_n also_o with_o infinite_a misery_n this_o they_o be_v a_o other_o cause_n which_o ought_v to_o steer_v up_o our_o mind_n to_o work_v well_o that_o we_o fall_v not_o into_o everlasting_a pain_n for_o so_o paul_n say_v i._o corhin_n vi_fw-la err_v not_o neither_o adulterer_n nor_o worshipper_n

good_a work_n be_v very_o necessary_a for_o that_o that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o a_o true_a faith_n and_o a_o certain_a trust_n in_o christ_n can_v stand_v without_o perfect_v conversion_n unto_o god_n or_o with_o sin_n which_o be_v commit_v against_o a_o man_n conscience_n these_o thing_n appear_v plain_o by_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o faith_n for_o faith_n be_v that_o assent_n to_o the_o gospel_n out_o of_o which_o there_o arise_v a_o sure_a confidence_n of_o god_n mercy_n promise_v for_o christ_n sake_n but_o such_o a_o trust_n can_v not_o stand_v with_o a_o purpose_n of_o sin_v wherein_o there_o be_v a_o manifest_a comtempte_n of_o god_n and_o a_o undoubted_a provocation_n of_o god_n wrath_n by_o reason_n of_o this_o fight_v between_o faith_n and_o sin_n paul_n say_v

promise_n of_o god_n reward_n minister_fw-fr the_z forth_o cause_n of_o good_a work_n for_o it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n that_o his_o most_o ample_a promise_n shall_v be_v preach_v to_o
