say_v that_o we_o be_v iustyfy_v by_o faith_n only_o and_o also_o do_v live_v by_o it_o only_o not_o that_o faith_n be_v our_o righteousness_n and_o life_n but_o because_o that_o by_o only_a faith_n we_o embrace_v jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o be_v our_o ryghteousnesse_n and_o life_n for_o when_o any_o man_n beléeve_v that_o he_o be_v appoint_v and_o ordain_v to_o salvation_n and_o eternal_a life_n in_o jesus_n christ_n incontinent_a he_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o all_o the_o benefit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o eternal_a life_n for_o jesus_n chryst_n be_v offer_v to_o we_o upon_o this_o condition_n the_o thyrd_o effect_n and_o work_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v fix_v and_o set_v on_o our_o heart_n on_o this_o manner_n that_o as_o he_o do_v unite_v and_o knit_v we_o into_o jesus_n christ_n as_o be_v say_v before_o and_o that_o jesus_n christ_n can_v not_o be_v idle_a within_o we_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o same_o holy_a ghost_n which_o engender_v faith_n in_o we_o as_o be_v say_v do_v sanctify_v our_o heart_n that_o be_v to_o say_v do_v consecrate_v we_o to_o god_n now_o this_o sanctyfication_n have_v two_o part_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o abolish_n of_o this_o corrupt_a nature_n and_o quality_n which_o before_o cause_v the_o law_n of_o god_n to_o displease_v we_o and_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o new_a nature_n or_o quality_n make_v we_o to_o begin_v to_o will_n and_o to_o do_v cheerful_o and_o couragiouslye_o those_o thing_n which_o we_o know_v do_v please_v god_n now_o this_o abolysh_n be_v first_o begin_v in_o the_o understanding_n by_o the_o which_o the_o darkness_n be_v lighten_v in_o such_o wise_a that_o we_o begin_v to_o know_v and_o approve_v that_o which_o we_o do_v think_v before_o be_v foolyshnesse_n then_o after_o in_o the_o will_n which_o be_v consecrate_v to_o god_n in_o such_o wise_n that_o it_o hate_v sin_n not_o for_o the_o pain_n but_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o love_v ryghteousnesse_n not_o because_o of_o reward_n but_o because_o that_o righteousness_n of_o itself_o please_v god_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v not_o yet_o death_n appoint_v and_o prepare_v for_o sinner_n or_o eternal_a life_n appoint_v and_o prepare_v for_o those_o which_o study_v to_o do_v ryghteousnes_n yet_o have_v he_o rather_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o follow_v righteousness_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o serve_v god_n holy_o &_o to_o love_v his_o neighbour_n as_o his_o law_n command_v and_o to_o endure_v and_o suffer_v all_o manner_n of_o pain_n for_o his_o name_n sake_n then_o to_o serve_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o covetousness_n wherefore_o to_o the_o end_n that_o i_o may_v gather_v all_o sumary_o together_o how_o only_o in_o jesus_n christ_n we_o find_v all_o that_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n likewise_o only_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o ap_o jesus_n christ_n to_o ourselves_o by_o faith_n but_o because_o this_o faith_n in_o the_o beginning_n be_v very_o small_a in_o we_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o it_o be_v increase_v in_o we_o daily_o wherefore_o now_o we_o must_v declare_v by_o what_o entertainment_n or_o mean_v it_o be_v noorysh_v for_o to_o increase_v more_o and_o more_o in_o us._n first_o as_o it_o be_v create_v in_o we_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n through_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n ▪_o which_o be_v sow_v in_o our_o heart_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n be_v compare_v to_o seed_n so_o likewise_o it_o be_v noorish_v and_o increase_v by_o the_o same_o word_n when_o we_o hear_v it_o dilligentlye_o and_o true_o preach_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o also_o when_o we_o read_v it_o in_o our_o house_n and_o think_v upon_o it_o diligent_o &_o meditate_v in_o it_o day_n and_o night_n forsake_v all_o humane_a and_o worldly_a affection_n which_o may_v turn_v we_o from_o god_n and_o hold_v we_o in_o worldlynesse_n therefore_o david_n say_v he_o be_v happy_a who_o not_o the_o rich_a not_o king_n or_o prince_n or_o merchant_n or_o any_o other_o citizen_n of_o this_o world_n but_o he_o that_o thynk_v continual_o and_o meditate_v diligent_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n therefore_o they_o be_v call_v stranger_n in_o this_o world_n wander_v and_o march_v towards_o the_o celestial_a country_n second_o we_o must_v know_v that_o god_n aid_v and_o help_v our_o debylyte_n and_o weakness_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o not_o be_v content_a to_o declare_v unto_o we_o by_o his_o word_n with_o what_o love_n he_o love_v we_o in_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n but_o will_v also_o join_v to_o his_o word_n certain_a outward_a mark_n or_o sign_n to_o the_o which_o also_o he_o add_v certain_a ceremony_n or_o manner_n of_o do_n represent_v by_o a_o certain_a manner_n to_o our_o eye_n and_o geve_v into_o our_o hand_n his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n with_o all_o his_o goodness_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o which_o we_o have_v before_o speak_v to_o the_o end_n that_o our_o faith_n be_v aid_v &_o support_v by_o these_o help_n shall_v be_v more_o and_o more_o confirm_v in_o we_o to_o draw_v we_o near_o to_o jesus_n christ_n now_o these_o mark_n be_v call_v in_o greek_a mystery_n that_o be_v to_o say_v secreete_n because_o that_o god_n do_v signify_v and_o represent_v to_o we_o by_o they_o thing_n which_o be_v very_o secreete_a in_o deed_n because_o man_n shall_v never_o doubt_v in_o they_o that_o be_v to_o say_v jesus_n christ_n with_o all_o his_o virtue_n and_o goodness_n unto_o eternal_a life_n but_o in_o latin_a they_o be_v call_v sacrament_n because_o of_o a_o other_o manner_n of_o use_n of_o they_o of_o the_o which_o we_o shall_v speak_v hereafter_o now_o there_o be_v in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n but_o only_o two_o sacrament_n that_o be_v to_o say_v baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n because_o that_o after_o the_o abolishinge_v of_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n and_o that_o the_o son_n of_o rightousnes_n be_v spring_v up_o god_n will_v not_o again_o wrap_v we_o in_o a_o multitude_n of_o figure_n and_o shadow_n but_o only_o have_v ordain_v two_o sacrament_n and_o will_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v compose_v &_o make_v of_o most_o simple_a thing_n that_o be_v of_o water_n bread_n and_o wine_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v celebrate_v with_o most_o simple_a ceremony_n that_o be_v with_o sprinkle_v of_o water_n in_o eat_v of_o bread_n &_o drink_v of_o wine_n
