peace to the church of God And the Woman signifieth the spouse and congregation of Christ being maried to the Lambe Christ Iesus rewarde is as much in effect vnto all such as euer it was vnto Phinies or at any other that at any time haue geuen theyr mindes vnto the obedience of gods lawes God graunt to all such zeale vnto his word that thereby we may haue the like rewarde that are now liuing in these present dayes Moreouer when the children of Israell had committed wickednesse in the sight of the Lord and they being deliuered into the hand of Madian yet the Lords compassion was such that he chose Gedeon and made him captayne ouer the children of Israel and by his mighty power deliuered them and the Lord sayde vnto Gedeon peace be vnto thee feare not thou shalt not dye for Gedeon after that he had sene the angell of the Lord was in a great feare and thought that he should haue dyed saying haue I therefore sene the angell of the Lord face to face that I should dye then Gedeon made an alter vnto the Lord and called it The Lord of peace Also the spirite of the Lord came vpon Iepthath and he passed ouer to Gilead and from thence vnto the children of Ammon and Iepthath vowed a vow vnto the Lord and sayde if thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into my handes then that thing that commeth out of my dores of my house agaynst me when I come home in peace from the children of Ammon shall be the Lordes and I will offer it for a burnt offering and the first that met him at his returne home was his owne daughter All the cities the which the Philistines had gotten from the Israelites the Lord restored them agayne euen from Acarom to Gathe with the costes of the same and Israell plucked them out of the handes of the Philistines and there was peace betwene Israell and the Amorites Also consider the great kindnesse of Abigaell the wife of Naball that churle when Dauid sent x. of his young men vnto him for that he had preserued his shepehardes and shepe in the wildernes saying greete him in my name and thus shall ye say peace be to thee and peace be to thine house peace be vnto all that thou hast Beholde I haue heard say thou hast shearers now thy sheepe were with vs in the wildernesse and we did them no spite neither was there ought of thy flocke minished vnto them all the while they were in Carmell aske thy laddes and they will shew thee wherefore let these young men finde fauour in thine eyes for we come in a good season and geue I pray thee whatsoeuer commeth to thine hand vnto vs and vnto thy sonne Dauid Naball hearing these wordes sayde what is Dauid and what is y e sonne of Isay there is plenty of seruantes now adayes that breake away euery man from hys master shall I then take my bread my water and my flesh that I haue killed for my shearers and geue it vnto men whom I wot not whēce they be when the younge men perceaued the churlishnes of Naball and that for the good done vnto him to haue no recompence returned and tolde Dauid then Dauid commaunded euery man to girde his sworde to hys side and prepare themselues to destroy Naball but Abigaell Nabals wife seing the misery that was like to ensue on her husbande for his churlishnes pro●●ded certayne loaues and partched corne and wine and a 100. frayles of reasons and 200. topnets of figges to pacifie the wrath of Dauid and rode to mete him in the way vnknowing vnto her husband and as she came in the way Dauid met her and sayd vnto her in vaine haue I kept al that this fellowe hath in the wildernesse and he hath quit me euill for good So and so do God to the enemies of Dauid if I leaue any thing that partaineth vnto him Abigael seing the fearcenesse of Dauid agaynst her husband fel down at his feete desired him to leaue of his enterprise and not to shed bloud and so Dauid withdrew his hand and receaued of Abigaell that which she brought vnto him sayd vnto her go vp in peace to thyne house beholde I haue heard thy voyce and haue accepted thy parson He that hath not peace of the hart the mouth and the acte ought not to be called a christian man wo be vnto them that had rather haue the sig●●e of abundaunce then to haue peaceable quietnesse for where the hart is fixed with the inordinate desire of the world there can neuer grow any prosperitie in the common wealth for if the subiect be in penury and haue the lacke of suffisance then is it not onely a misery to the commons but most of all to the prince or magistrates the kinges power ought alwayes to rest in his subiectes For if they he weake and feable then cannot that prince or gouernour be strong although he had neuer so much aboundance of golde or treasure for such treasure being hid and vnoccupied bredeth most miserable reproch and endlesse tormentes These thinges haue I spoken vnto you being yet present with you but the comforter which is the holy ghost whome my father will sende in my name he shall teach you all thinges and bring all thinges to your remembraunce what so euer I haue sayde vnto you peace I leaue with you my peace I geue vnto you let not your hartes be greued neither feare ye haue heard how I sayd vnto you I goe and come agayne vnto you The Lord is euen at hand be not carefull but in all thinges shew your peticion vnto God in prayer and supplication with geuing of thankes And the peace of God which passeth all vnderstanding kepe your hartes and mindes in Christ Iesu. Grace be with you and peace from him which is and which was and is to come and from the 7. spirites which are presente before hys throne frō Iesus Christ which is a faithfull witnesse and first begotten of the dead and washed vs from sinne in his owne bloud and made vs kinges and princes vnto God his father be glory and dominion for euer more Amen ❧ The fetching of soules out of purgatory FOrasmuch as the Antichristians haue a place among themselues imagined a place the which the call purgatory and so affirming it and that through their power they are able to bringe soules departed out of hell into theyr purgatory and also to sende soules thether at theyr pleasure and will I
