That no man is iustified by the law in the sight of God it is euident for the iust shall liue by faith 18. If the inheritance be of the law it is no more of promise but God gaue it to Abraham by promise 21. Gal. 3. For if there had been a law giuen which could haue giuen life verily righteousnes should haue beene by the law 22. But the Scripture hath concluded all vnder sinne that the promise by faith of Iesus Christ might be giuen to them that beleeue 23. But before faith came we were kept vnder the Law shut vp vnto the faith which should afterwards be reuealed 24. Wherefore the law was our Schoolemaster to bring vs vnto Christ that we might bee iustified by faith Gal. 3. 25. But after that faith is come we are no longer vnder a Schoolemaster 26. For yee are all the children of God by faith in Christ Iesus Fasting Matth. 6. 16. WHen ye fast be not as the Hipocrites of a sad countenance for they disfigure their faces that they may appeare vnto men to fast verily I say vnto you they haue their reward 17. But thou when thou fastest anoint thine head and wash thy face 18. That thou appeare not vnto men to fast but vnto thy father which is in secret thy father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly 5. Isa 58. Is it such a fast that I haue chosen a day for a man to afflict his soule Is it to bowe downe his head as a bulrush and to spread sackloth and ashes vnder him wilt thou call this a fast and an acceptable day to the Lord 6. Is not this the fast that I haue chosen to loose the bonds of wickednesse to vndoe the heauie burthens and to let the oppressed goe free and that ye breake euery yoke 7. Is it not to deale thy bread to the hungry and that thou bring the poore that are cast out to thine house when thou seest the naked that thou couer him and that thou hide not thy selfe from thine owne flesh Zechar. 7. 5. When ye fasted and mourned in the fift and seauenth moneth euen those seuentie yeares did ye at all fast vnto me euen to me 9. Thus speaketh the Lord of Hostes saying execute true iudgement and shew mercie and compassion euerie man to his brother 10.

The people of Nineueh beleeued God and proclaimed a fast and put on sackloth from the greatest of them to the least of them 6. And the king of Nineueh arose from his throne and hee layde his robe from him and couered him with sackloth and sate in ashes 7. And he caused it to bee proclaimed and published through Nineueh by the decree of the king and his nobles saying let neither man nor beast heard nor flocke taste any thing let them not feede nor drinke water 8. But let man and beast be couered with sakcloth and cry mightily vnto God yea let them turne euery one from his euill way and from the violeÌ„ce that is in their hands Ionah 3. 9.
