the_o world_n with_o all_o his_o tyranny_n shall_v short_o vanish_v away_o and_o for_o ever_o after_o be_v plague_v in_o hell_n fire_n but_o contrariwise_o thy_o affliction_n shall_v not_o endure_v

whence_o have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o comfort_n 16._o from_o the_o father_n say_v christ_n here_o for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n procee_v from_o the_o father_n and_o this_o be_v a_o noble_a and_o notable_a sentence_n to_o confirm_v our_o article_n of_o the_o trinity_n for_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n procee_v from_o the_o father_n god_n then_o must_v it_o needs_o follow_v that_o he_o be_v everlasting_a for_o nothing_o can_v proceed_v from_o the_o father_n but_o that_o be_v of_o his_o own_o nature_n essence_n and_o substance_n therefore_o as_o god_n the_o son_n be_v everlasting_a because_o he_o be_v beget_v of_o the_o everlasting_a father_n for_o god_n can_v beget_v nothing_o but_o that_o be_v like_a to_o himself_o so_o be_v this_o also_o a_o necessary_a consequence_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o procee_v from_o god_n be_v everlasting_a but_o this_o article_n we_o will_v leave_v at_o this_o present_a &_o when_o time_n require_v life_n we_o will_v speak_v more_o large_o of_o it_o but_o where_o with_o do_v the_o holy_a ghost_n comfort_n of_o i_o say_v christ_n shall_v he_o bear_v witness_n as_o though_o he_o shall_v say_v in_o this_o world_n look_v for_o nothing_o else_o but_o for_o persecution_n imprisonment_n loss_n of_o good_n and_o at_o the_o last_o death_n this_o be_v the_o reward_n of_o the_o true_a christian_n in_o this_o life_n inward_o but_o be_v not_o dismay_v the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v come_v unto_o thou_o &_o conforte_v thou_o he_o shall_v testify_v of_o i_o he_o shall_v put_v thou_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o he_o shall_v so_o

into_o heaven_n according_a to_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christen_v faith_n if_o this_o be_v true_a as_o nothing_o be_v more_o true_a why_o they_o shall_v thou_o fear_v thus_o speak_v the_o holy_a ghost_n daily_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o afflict_a christian_n unto_o their_o great_a encouragement_n &_o comfort_n and_o very_o he_o that_o die_v for_o our_o sake_n can_v not_o hate_v we_o nor_o bear_v any_o evil_a will_n against_o us._n if_o he_o then_o love_v we_o what_o shall_v we_o fear_v as_o though_o he_o love_v we_o not_o yea_o what_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v content_a to_o suffer_v &_o to_o lose_v so_o that_o we_o may_v obtain_v christ_n &_o his_o richesse_n ●_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o think_v all_o thing_n but_o loss_n for_o the_o excellency_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n jesu_n my_o lord_n for_o who_o i_o have_v count_v all_o thing_n loss_n and_o do_v judge_v they_o but_o vile_a that_o i_o may_v win_v christ_n and_o be_v foounde_v in_o he_o etc._n etc._n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o christ_n here_o say_v he_o shall_v bear_v witness_n of_o i_o for_o in_o this_o testimony_n or_o witness_n consist_v the_o whole_a comfort_n therefore_o these_o word_n of_o i_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v write_v in_o letter_n of_o gold_n &_o diligent_o to_o be_v observe_v doctrine_n for_o these_o word_n be_v able_a to_o assure_v we_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n bring_v no_o new_a doctrine_n neither_o set_v he_o forth_o unto_o we_o moses_n or_o any_o other_o thing_n to_o comfort_v the_o conscience_n but_o christ_n alone_o &_o his_o word_n for_o nothing_o can_v comfort_v the_o conscience_n but_o the_o testimony_n &_o witness_n bear_v of_o christ_n conscience_n of_o his_o death_n &_o resurrection_n all_o other_o thing_n trouble_v &_o fray_v the_o conscience_n by_o whatsoever_o name_n they_o be_v call_v law_n good_a work_n pilgrimage_n worshippinge_n of_o saint_n etc._n etc._n for_o god_n himself_o when_o we_o deal_v with_o he_o without_o christ_n note_n be_v terrible_a neither_o can_v we_o find_v any_o favour_n or_o conforte_v at_o his_o hand_n but_o anger_n wrath_n &_o displeasure_n as_o christ_n say_v i_o be_o the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n anima_fw-la no_o man_n come_v unto_o the_o father_n but_o by_o i_o hereto_o agree_v the_o say_n of_o s._n ambrose_n christ_n alone_o be_v our_o mouth_n whereby_o we_o speak_v to_o the_o father_n our_o eye_n whereby_o we_o see_v the_o father_n our_o right_a hand_n whereby_o we_o offer_v to_o the_o father_n which_o christ_n except_o he_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o neither_o we_o nor_o all_o the_o saint_n have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v with_o god_n the_o doctrine_n that_o set_v forth_o christ_n that_o bring_v true_a consolation_n &_o make_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n merry_a all_o other_o bring_v to_o the_o afflict_a conscience_n not_o conforte_v but_o disconforte_n not_o life_n but_o death_n not_o salvation_n but_o damnation_n therefore_o all_o the_o matter_n consist_v in_o this_o one_o point_n that_o thou_o true_o right_o and_o certain_o know_v this_o consolation_n &_o comfort_n so_o may_v thou_o be_v bold_a to_o say_v i_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n which_o die_v for_o i_o and_o i_o know_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v and_o be_v call_v a_o conforter_n will_v bring_v none_o other_o testimony_n &_o comfort_n than_o this_o alone_a that_o he_o shall_v testify_v and_o bear_v witness_n of_o christ_n which_o alone_o and_o none_o other_o will_v i_o admit_v and_o receive_v for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o conforte_n better_o or_o sure_a than_o this_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v also_o have_v bring_v it_o but_o he_o do_v nothing_o else_o then_o testify_v of_o christ._n but_o why_o do_v christ_n use_v the_o word_n of_o testifyinge_v or_o bear_v of_o witness_n john_n this_o be_v do_v to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v the_o more_o diligent_o attend_v and_o mark_v the_o word_n for_o this_o be_v certain_a and_o true_a that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v inward_o in_o the_o heart_n but_o yet_o will_v not_o he_o administer_v this_o work_n otherwise_o then_o by_o the_o outward_a word_n as_o paul_n also_o say_v that_o faith_n come_v by_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n word_n therefore_o christ_n call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o witness_n now_o do_v he_o bear_v wytnes_n by_o the_o mouth_n and_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o preacher_n which_o sincerelye_o and_o pure_o set_v forth_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ._n therefore_o he_o that_o desire_v conforte_v may_v not_o tarry_v 10._o till_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v personal_o and_o preach_v christ_n unto_o he_o or_o speak_v unto_o he_o from_o heaven_n he_o geve_v forth_o his_o witness_n open_o in_o the_o word_n there_o be_v he_o to_o be_v seek_v

this_o inward_a witness_n come_v not_o except_o the_o outward_a witness_n of_o the_o word_n go_v before_o wherein_o it_o be_v declare_v that_o christ_n for_o our_o sake_n become_v man_n be_v crucify_v die_v and_o rise_v again_o so_o that_o the_o sum_n of_o this_o gospel_n be_v that_o if_o we_o intend_v to_o be_v christian_n world_n we_o may_v not_o in_o this_o life_n look_v for_o richesse_n dignity_n renown_n glory_n etc._n etc._n but_o rather_o think_v most_o certain_o that_o for_o this_o our_o profession_n we_o shall_v have_v the_o world_n a_o enemy_n to_o persecute_v we_o besides_o the_o vexation_n of_o sin_n devil_n and_o death_n therefore_o when_o these_o torment_n
