No man is iustefied by the deedes of the Law but by the Fayth of Iesus Christ And we beleeue in Iesus Christ that we may be iustefied by the Fayth of Christ and not by the deedes of the Law For yf righteousnes come by the Law then dyed Christ in vayne Galla. 2. That no man is iustefied by the Law is manifest For a righteous man lyneth by his Fayth but the Law is not of Fayth Galla. 3. Moreouer sith it behoued Christ the maker of heauen and earth and all that is therein to die for vs we are compelled to graunt that we were so farre drowned and sunken in sinne that neither our deedes nor all the treasures that euer God made coulde haue holpen vs out of them Therefore no deedes nor workes may make vs righteous No workes make vs vnrighteous If any euyll workes make vs vnrighteous then the contrary workes should make vs righteous But it is proued that no workes can make vs righteous Therefore no workes maketh vs vnrighteous Workes maketh vs neither good nor euill It is proued that workes neither make vs righteous nor vnrighteous Therefore no workes make vs either good or euill For righteous and good are one thing and vnrighteous and euill likewise one Good workes make not a good man nor euyll workes an euyll man But a good man bringeth foorth good workes and an euyll man euyll workes Good fruite maketh not the Tree good nor euyll fruite the Tree euyll But a good Tree beareth good fruite and an euyll tree euyll fruite A good man can not do euyll workes nor an euyll man good workes for a good tree can not beare euyll fruite nor an euyll tree good fruite A man is good ere he do good workes and euyll ere he do euyll workes for the tree is good ere it beare good fruite and euyll ere it beare euyll fruite Euery man and his workes are eyther good or euyll Euery Tree and the fruite thereof are eyther good or euyll Either make ye the tree good and the fruite good also or els make the tree euyll and the fruite of it likewise euyll Math. 12. A good man is knowen by his workes for a good man doth good workes and an euyll man doth euyll workes Ye shall know them by their fruite For a good tree beareth good fruite and an euyll tree euyll fruite A man is likoned to the tree and his workes to the fruite of the tree Beware of the false Prophets which come to you in Sheepes clothing but inwardly they are rauenyng Woolues ye shal know them by their fruites Math. 7.

For he calleth him selfe the Sauiour which pertayneth to Christ onely What is a Sauiour but he that saueth And he saith I saued my selfe which is as much to say as I am Christ for Christ onely is the sauiour of the world We should do no good workes for the intent to get the inheritance of heauen or remission of sinnes For whosoeuer beleeueth to get the inheritance of heauen or remission of sinne through workes he beleeueth not to get the same for Christes sake And they that beleeue not that their sinnes are forgeuen them and that they shalbe saued for Christes sake they beleeue not the Gospell for the Gospell sayth You shalbe saued for Christes sake your sinnes are forgeuen for Christes sake He that beleeueth not the Gospel beleeueth not God So it foloweth that they which beleeue to be saued by their workes or to get remission of their sinnes by their owne deedes beleeue not God but recount him as a lyer and so vtterly deny him to be God Obiection Thou wilt say Shall we

Ergo Fayth is the gyft of God The tenth Proposition proposition 10 Fayth is not in our power Argument Da The gyft of God is not in our power ri Fayth is the gyft of God i. Ergo Fayth is not in our power The eleuenth Proposition proposition 11 He that lacketh Fayth can not please God Without Fayth it is impossible to please God Rom. 14. All that commeth not of Fayth is sinne for without Fayth can no man please God Heb. 11. Induction He that lacketh Fayth trusteth not God He that trusteth not God trusteth not his worde He that trusteth not his worde holdeth him false and a lyer He that holdeth him false and a lyer beleeueth not that he may do that he promiseth and so denyeth he that he is God Ergo a primo ad vltimum He that lacketh Fayth denyeth God If it were possible for any man to do al the good deedes that euer were done either of men or Angels yet being in this case it is impossible for him to please God The twelfth Proposition proposition 12 All that is done in fayth pleaseth God Right is the word of God and all his workes in fayth Psal. 33.

reconciled Rom. 5. Who hath destroyed death and brought lyfe to light 1. Tim. 1. Who by death hath destroyed him which had the power of death that is the Deuill And hath deliuered them which liued vnder feare of death all their lyfe in bondage Heb. 2. By whose obedience we are made iust By whose righteousnes we are iustified to lyfe Rom. 5. By whose curse we are made blessed and deliuered from the maladiction of the Law Galla. 3. with many other such like c. Wherefore whosoeuer studieth to be accepted with God and to be founde righteous in his sight let him learne diligently by the doctrine of Sainct Paule to make a difference a seperation as farre as from heauen to the earth betweene these two that is betweene the righteousnes of workes and righteousnes of Fayth And in any case beware he bring no other meanes for his iustification or remission of his sinnes but onely Fayth apprehending the body or person of Christ Iesus crucified For as there is no way into the house but by the doore so is there no comming to God but by Christ alone which is by Fayth And as the mortell body without bodely sustenance of bread and drinke can not but perish so the spirituall soule of man hath no other refreshing but onely by Fayth in the body and blood of Christ whereby to be saued With this Fayth the idolatrous Gentiles apprehended Iesus Christ and receiued thereby righteousnes Cornelius the first baptised Roman so soone as he heard Peter preach Christ receaued straight way the holy Ghost Peter him selfe confessed and for his confession had the keyes of heauen Math. 16. Zacheus receaued the person of Christ into his house and withal receaued saluation both to him and his whole householde Luk. 19. What a sinner was Marie which had no lesse in her then seauen Deuils and yet because she set her hart and affection vpon that person many sinnes were forgeuen her Luk. 7. The righthand Thiefe how farre was he from all workes of the Law And yet by Fayth entred he iustefied into Paradice the same day with Christ. Luk. 23. In lyke maner although the poore Publican came to the Church with lesse holinesse after the Law yet went he home to his house more iustified then the Pharise with all his workes and all by reason of Fayth Luk. 18. The parable of the Prodigall Sonne which was lost yet reuiued agayne Also of the lost Groate and of the lost Sheepe which went astray and was founde againe What do these declare but that which is lost by the Law to be recouered by Fayth and Grace And how oft do we reade in the Gospel Thy Fayth hath saued thec c Iesus seeing their beliefe c. He that beleeueth in mee I will rayse him vp in the last day c. Beleeue also in mee c. He that beleeueth in mee hath euerlasting lyfe c. Without me ye can do nothing c. He that is in me c. He that loueth me c. He that heareth me c. He that abydeth in me c. He that receaueth me c. Vnlesse ye eate my flesh drinke my blood c. That they may receaue remission of their sinnes by their fayth in me c. Act. 26. To him all the Prophets giue witnes that whosoeuer beleeueth in him should haue remission of sinnes in his name c. Act. 10. He that beleeueth and is baptised Math. vlt. He that beleeueth in mee shall do the workes that I doe and greater then these c. And likewise in the writinges of S. Paule how often do we heare the name of Christ almost in euery third or fourth line where he still repeateth In Christo Iesu per Christum Iesum per Iesum Christum dominū nostrum c. Qui credunt in ipso c. Omnes qui credunt in eo c. Credentes illo in eum credentes illi in nomen eius In nomine Domini nostri Iesu Christi c. Beleeue sayth S. Paule to the Iaylor in the Lord Iesus and thou shalt be saued and thy whole house c. Act. 16. Thus then thou seest as the Passion of Christ is only the efficient or personall cause immediate of our saluation so is Fayth onely the instrumentall or meane cause that maketh the merites of Christ to vs auayleable For as the Passion of Christ serueth to none but such as do beleeue so neither doth Fayth as it is only a bare qualitie or action in mans minde it selfe iustifie vnlesse it be directed to the body of Christ crucified as to his obiect of whom it receaueth all his vertue And therefore these two must alwayes ioyntly concurre togeather Fayth and Christ Iesus crucified As for example When the Children of Israel were bid of Moses to looke vp to the Brasen Serpent neither coulde the Serpent haue helped them except they had looked vp nor yet their looking vpward haue profited them vnlesse they had directed their eyes vpon the sayd Serpent as the onely obiect set vp to the same purpose for them to beholde So our Fayth in lyke case directed to the body of Iesus our Sauiour is onely the meanes whereby Christes merites are applyed vnto vs and we now iustified before God according to the doctrine of S. Paule who in expresse wordes defining to vs what this Fayth is and how it iustifieth sayth If thou shalt confesse with thy mouth the Lord Iesus and beleeue with thy hart that God raised him from death thou shalt be saued c. Rom. 10. Besides this what action or qualitie soeuer is in man either Hope Charitie or any other kinde of Fayth and beleeuing be it neuer so true except it apprehende this obiect which is the body of Christ the Sonne of God it serueth not to iustification And that is the cause why we adde this particle onely to Fayth and say That Fayth onely in Christ iustifyeth vs to exclude all other actions qualities gyftes or workes of man from the cause of iustifying forsomuch as there is no other knowledge nor gyft geuen of God to man be it neuer so excellent that can stande before the iudgement of God to iustifycation or whereunto any promyse of saluation is annexed but onely this Fayth looking vp to the brasen Serpent that is to the body of Christ Iesus for vs crucifyed As for example When the Turke sayth That he beleeueth in one lyuing God that made heauen earth his beliefe therein is true yet it iustifieth him not because it lacketh the right obiect which is Christ. So when the Iew sayth That he beleeueth in one God maker of heauen and earth and beleeueth also the same God to be omnipotent mercifull iust and true of promyse and that he hath elected the seede of Abraham True it is that he beleeueth and yet
Peace sayth he be to thee brother and kissed him and both were beheaded togeather Andrew the Apostle ANdrew the Apostle of our Lord and sauiour Christ and brother to Peter being ●onuersant in a Citie of Achaia called Patris through his diligent preaching had brought many to the Fayth of Christ. Egeas the Gouernour knowing this resorted thyther to the intent he might constrayne as many as did beleeue Christ to be God by the whole consent of the Senate to do sacrifice vnto the Idols and so giue deuine honoure to them Andrew thinking good at the beginning to resist the wicked counsayle and doinges of Egeas went vnto him saying in this effect That it behoued him that was Iudge of men first to know his Iudge which dwelleth in Heauen and then to worshyp him being knowen and so in worshypping the true God to reuoke his minde from false Gods and blinde Idols But the Preconsull esteeming these thinges to be as vayne especially seeing the Iewes as he sayd had crucified Christ before therefore charged and commaunded Andrew not to teach and preach such things any more or if he did that he should be fastoned to the Crosse with all speede Andrew abyding in his former mynde very constant answered concerning the punishment which he threatned He would not haue preached the honour and glory of the Crosse if he had feared the death of the Crosse. Wherevpon sentence of condempnation was pronounced that Andrew teaching and enterprising a new sect and taking away the religion of their goddes ought to be crucified Andrew comming to the place and seeing a farer off the Crosse prepared did change neither ●ullor nor countenance but out of the abundance of his hart did speake and sayd O Crosse most welcome and long looked for with a willing mynde ioyfully and desirously I come to thee being Scholler of him which did hang on thee because I haue been alwayes thy louer and haue coueted to imbrace thee So being crucified he yeelded vp the Ghost Thomas the Apostle THomas the Apostle of our sauiour Iesus Christ preached to the Parthians Meds and Persians Also to the Germanes Hiraconis Bactris and Magis He suffered in Calamina a citie of Indea being slayne with a Dart. Bartholomew the Apostle BArtholomew the Apostle of our Lord and Sauiour Christ preached to the Indians and conuerted the Gospel written by S. Mathew into their tongue where he continued a great space doing many myracles At last in Albania a Citie of greater Armenia after diuers persecutions he was beaten downe with staues then crucified and after being ex●oriate he was also beheaded Matthias the Apostle MAtthias the Apostle of our Sauiour Christ after he had preached to the Iewes at length he was stoned and beheaded Some do recorde that he dyed in Ethiopia Philip the Apostle PHilip the Apostle of our Sauiour Christ after he had much laboured among the barbarous nations in preaching the worde of saluation to them At last he suffered in Hirapolis a citie of Phrigia being there stoned to death crucified where also he was buried and his daughters also with him Iudas called Thaddeus the Apostle IVdas called Thaddeus the Apostle of our Lord and Sauiour Christ brother of Iames preached to the Edessens and to all Messopotamia He was afterwardes slayne vnder Angarus king of the Edessens in Berito Symon called Zelous the Apostle SYmon called zelous the Apostle of our Sauiour Christ preached at Maritan●a and in the countrie of Affricke and in Britania He was likewise crucified FINIS Imprinted at London by William White 1598.
