What the Lawe is THe Law of God is a doctrine prescribing vnto vs what we ought to doe and what to eschue both toward God and our neighbour ☞ The confirmations Thou shalt loue the Lorde thy God with all thy hart Thou shalt not take the name of thy Lord God in vaine Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe Thou shalt not kill Thou shalt not steale ¶ To what vse the lawe was geuen Fyrst that it should declare vnto vs the will of God how we ought to liue and what workes we ought to do that we may please the Lord our God ☞ The confirmations The law of the Lorde is an vndefiled law cōuerting soules The testimony of the Lord is sure and geueth wisedome to y e simple The statutes of the Lord are right and reioyce the hart The commaundemēt of the Lord is pure and geueth light to the eyes Thy worde is a lanterne to my feete a light to my pathwaies He sheweth hys word vnto Iacob hys statutes and ordinaunces vnto Israell He hath not dealt so with any nation neyther haue the heathen knowledge of hys lawes Secondly that it shoulde reueale and open vnto vs our sinne and wickednes while we consider how vnable we be of our selues to doe that which the holy righteous good law of God requireth of vs to be done ☞ The confirmations By the lawe cōmeth the knowledge of sinne The lawe entred in that sinne should increase What shall we say is the lawe sinne God forbid Nay I knewe not what sinne ment but by the lawe for I had not knowen what lust had ment except the lawe had said Thou shalt not lust But sinne tooke an occasion by the meanes of the commaundement wrought in me all maner of concupiscence For without the lawe sinne was dead I once liued without y e lawe but when the commaundement came sinne 〈◊〉 I was dead And y e very same cōmaundement which was ordayned vnto lyfe was found to be vnto me an occasion of death For sinne tooke occasion by y ● meanes of the cōmaundement so deceaued me by the same commaundement s●ue me The sti●ge of death is sinne and the strength of sinne is the law The letter that is to say the law killeth The lawe is the ministring of condemnation Moyses sayth Christ gaue you a lawe and yet none of you fulfilleth the lawe in deede Thirdly after we haue learned our weaknes our wretchednes our sinne our wickednes by comparing our strength and life with the lawe of God which proueth vs all sinners and worthy of eternall damnation least we shoulde fall into desperation and so be damned the lawe was geuen of God to bee a Scholemaister vnto vs to lead vs vnto Christ the alone end and perfect fulfiller of all the lawes of God that we through fayth takyng vppon vs hys righteousnes and hys fulfilling of the lawe myght bee found blameles through hym in the sight of God and to bee made inheritours of euerlasting glory ☞ The confirmations The law was our Scholemaister vnto Christ that we shoulde bee iustified by fayth But after that fayth is come we are no longer vnder the Scholemaister For ye are all the children of God because ye beleue in Christ Iesu. The lawe brought nothyug to perfection but was an introduction to a better hope by the which we drawnie vnto God Be it knowen vnto you ye men and brethren that through thys man Christ is preached vnto you the forgeuenes of sinnes that by hym all that beleue are iustified frō all thinges frō the which ye coulde not hee iustified by the lawe of Moyses Why tempt ye God to put on the Disciples neckes y e yoke which neyther our fathers nor we were able to beare But we beleue that thorow the grace of the Lord Iesu Christ we shall be saued Christ is the fulfilling of the law to iustifie all that beleue Christ hath deliuered vs from the curse of the law in as much as he was made accursed for vs. ¶ The x.

For by one spirite are we all baptised to make one body whether we bee Iewes or Gentiles whether we be bonde or free and haue all drunke of one spirite For the body is not one member but many c. Therefore if one member suffer all suffer with hym If one member be had in honour all members be glad also Ye are the body of Christ and members one of an other ¶ Of the distribution to the needie All that beleued kept thē selues together and had all thinges common solde their possessions and goods and parted them to all mē as euery man had neede Great grace was there with all them that beleued Neyther was there any among thē that lacked For as many as were possessours of landes or houses solde them and brought the price of the things that were solde and layde it downe at the Apostles feete And distribution was made vnto euery man according as he had neede Distribute vnto the necessitie of the Saintes Be ready to harbour As concerning the gathering for the Sainctes let euery one of you vpō some Sabbaoth day put aside lay vp what soeuer is meete c.
