they must put on a fatherly affection toward their Inferiours Question The sixt commaundement Thou shalt do no murther what meaneth this Aunswer The Lorde here forbyddeth all kyllyng fightyng quarrelling and inward hatred all desire of reuenge all reproches and mockes of the dumme the deafe the lame or anye other impotent All hurt towarde our brother and that we should do good vnto all yea euen to our enemies and loue one another as our selues Question What meaneth the seuenth commaundement Thou shalt not commit adulterie Aunswer In thys commaundement the Lorde forbyddeth all fornication adultery vncleannes wantōnes al vnnatural lusts vnpure thoughts vnchaste behauiour filthye talke wanton apparell ydle pastimes glottony dronkennes houses of open whoredome and whatsoeuer els may allure to vncleaues Question What meaneth the eight commaundement Thou shalt not steale Aunswer The Lorde here forbyddeth all stealyng both in deede thought all deceite all lying and oppression all withholding of the laborers hire all vncourteousnes to the straunger widow and fatherles all gyftes to peruert iudgement all false measures and couetousnes and chargeth vs to be content wyth our callyng and to lyue of our own To obserue these thinges is not to steale Question What meaneth the ninth commaundement Thou shalt beare no false wytnes against thy neighbour Aunswer We are here forbidden to beare witnes in any vntruth by othe or by word we are forbiddē al flatterie and dissemblyng all flaunderous and yll reportes either our selues to speake them or to heare them of others nor in priuate offences we may not speake the truth to the hurt of our brothers good name if by priuate admonitions he mai be won but carefully bold ly we must testefy al truth what so euer we knowe to the furtherance of iustice Question What meaneth the tenth commaundement Thou shalt not couet thy neyghbours house c Aunswer Here in plaine wordes God forbiddeth all inward desire what so euer is vnlawful to be done which desire is not onely synful when we consent vnto it but the very motion is enemy vnto God and banished from his presence For it is vn possible those bodyes shoulde see God which can nourish euyll concupiscence in them euen as it is vn possible that corruption should inherite incorruption or that flesh and bloud in this similitude of old Adam shoulde inherite the kyngdome of god So that by this commaūdement most clearely we may see the image of that man that plea seth God euen such a one in whom is nothing impure neither in wyll nor nature Question Sithe these are Gods commaundements I sée now most assuredly how there is no man that synneth not tell me then what punishment is due vnto our synne Aunswer The reward of synne is death not onely the present and transitory chaunge which we shal all taste of but ● second death an other euerlasting death the cursse of God and his heauie wrath which hath no end euerlasting condemnation and the paines of hel which abide for euer not onelye in soule whose worme dyeth not but in body also whose fyre shal neuer be quenched Question How say we then that God is merciful if his anger be such as shall neuer be pacified Aunswer God is in dede a God of all mercies and father of all consolations whose louyng kyndnesse hath no end and in the great ritches of hys compassions he hath appointed to make knowen the glory of his maiestie vnto hys children But God is also iust iudgeth righteously and therfore to such as through infidelitie despise the ritches of hys goodnes and disobey the woord of hys gloryous power he hath appointed a iuste recompence of eternall death Question Now I know what is sinne euen the breache of the lawe of god And because of the excellencie of Gods maiesty whiche by sinne is offended I see the greatnes of sinne and how it deserueth eternall death of which without exception by nature we are all gyltie But tell me now is there no punishment in this lyfe by which we may recompence our sinne Aunswer There is no sufficient recompence in the world no goods nor multitude of ritches no liberalitie to the poore no whipping nor scourging nor hurt of thine own body nothing that thou canst deuise so precious is the redemption of thy soule and the continuaunce for euer Question Nowe I know what sinne is to what death it hath condemned vs without all remedie in our selues tell me now how we may be deliuered from the anger of God and the paynes euerlasting Aunswer Marke and I will tel thee pray vnto God to geue thee vnderstanding and low in humilitie of spirit I will declare the saluation of the Lorde when we had sinned and by sinne had prouoked God to anger and so wer subiect to Satan hell and condemnation that the righteousnes of God might stand it was necessary that these things should be borne and suffered the anger of God the tyrannie of Satan and the paines of hell which all folowed sinne and therefore he that shal be a sauior for our sinnes he must take this vpon him in his owne righteousnes he must be deliuered agayne from them Question Tell me then where shall we finde such a Sauiour Aunswer The Lord lighten our eyes that we may vnderstand the

praises of al his mercies This Sauior whom we seeke for who for our synnes must taste of death yet in the power of his owne ryghteousnes must rise from death to life he cannot be found among the childrē of men All the righteousnes of Abrahā Isaac and Iacob it cannot recompence the least of all my synnes Adam and Eue while they were yet in integritie they could not beare the synne of the eating of one apple which was forbydden them Yea the Angels of heauen when they kept not the first estate but fell away from the truth in which they were created they could not beare vp their syn but
