death_n be_v never_o so_o horrible_a yet_o ●●e_z must_v still_o stick_v to_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n &_o sure_o must_v trust_v and_o doubt_v nothing_o that_o our_o sin_n be_v forguien_v we_o for_o christ_n sake_n according_a to_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n without_o any_o deserving_n of_o we_o and_o that_o god_n be_v our_o father_n and_o we_o shall_v hue_n with_o he_o for_o ever_o and_o ever_o the_o work_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v of_o great_a and_o infinite_a and_o omnipotent_a power_n ought_v more_o to_o stir_v we_o up_o to_o trust_v well_o on_o god_n that_o he_o will_v be_v ever_o more_o to_o we_o a_o merciful_a lord_n than_o our_o sin_n ought_v to_o fray_v we_o for_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n be_v much_o strong_a &_o more_o able_a to_o deliver_v and_o

grace_n and_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n with_o out_o any_o regard_n or_o respect_n of_o our_o work_n and_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o singular_a pro●idence_n of_o the_o great_a fatherly_a love_n of_o god_n toward_o we_o because_o our_o justification_n shall_v stand_v firm_a and_o certain_a by_o faith_n so_o that_o no_o man_n need_v doubt_n of_o the_o favour_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n toward_o he_o if_o this_o grace_n and_o promise_n stand_v in_o y_fw-fr hand_n of_o god_n then_o be_v it_o sure_a so_o that_o we_o can_v doubt_v of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o if_o ●hey_n shall_v stand_v in_o our_o own_o hand_n and_o shall_v hang_v of_o ourselves_o than_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v uncertain_a because_o we_o be_v ne●er_o able_a to_o descrue_v sufficient_o be_v not_o sifficient_a of_o strength_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n but_o after_o that_o we_o return_v &_o repose_v ourselves_o in_o christ_n alone_o and_o in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n then_o be_v we_o safe_a and_o sure_a enough_o because_o god_n have_v so_o promise_v of_o his_o voluntary_a grace_n free_o and_o have_v found_v his_o promise_n upon_o the_o faith_n in_o christ_n to_o the_o

promise_n unto_o israel_n that_o be_v unto_o all_o believer_n in_o christ_n a_o spring_a bud_n of_o justice_n a_o king_n which_o shall_v rule_v wise_o and_o shall_v execute_v judgement_n and_o justice_n in_o earth_n and_o under_o who_o israel_n shall_v dwell_v bold_o with_o confidence_n these_o thing_n be_v in_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n in_o which_o there_o be_v true_a and_o spiritual_a security_n where_o as_o every_o christian_n man_v heart_n have_v pea●e_v with_o god_n through_o faith_n in_o christ_n in_o the_o which_o kingdom_n neither_o sin_n can_v damneos_fw-la neither_o death_n can_v kill_v we_o nor_o hell_n can_v swallow_v we_o for_o god_n be_v with_o we_o and_o feed_v we_o and_o defend_v we_o as_o his_o sheep_n therefore_o who_o shall_v stand_v against_o we_o and_o esai_n when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 42._o say_v he_o shall_v be_v pour_v from_o above_o that_o be_v when_o christ_n begin_v his_o kingdom_n than_o the_o work_n and_o fruit_n of_o justice_n shall_v be_v peace_n &_o the_o keep_n of_o justice_n shall_v be_v silence_n &_o security_n for_o ever_o &_o ever_o and_o the_o people_n of_o god_n shall_v dwell_v in_o comeliness_n of_o peace_n &_o in_o house_n of_o trust_n all_o these_o thing_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o signify_v y_fw-fr christ_n people_n in_o his_o kingdom_n shall_v be_v all_o good_a quiet_a at_o rest_n and_o merry_a which_o

without_o any_o doubt_n i_o beseech_v you_o what_o can_v our_o adversary_n bring_v against_o this_o or_o how_o can_v they_o maintain_v their_o error_n in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o world_n conclusion_n here_o i_o have_v prove_v &_o teach_v out_o of_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n y_fw-es no_o faithful_a believer_n in_o christ_n can_v or_o ought_v to_o doubt_v of_o the_o favour_n

for_o christ_n sake_n in_o who_o we_o believe_v &_o which_o will_v justify_v we_o and_o give_v we_o everlasting_a life_n without_o any_o doubt_n here_o our_o adversary_n can_v have_v nothing_o to_o lay_v against_o this_o doctrine_n or_o to_o subvert_v this_o foundation_n but_o one_o refuge_n they_o have_v papist_n that_o when_o we_o bring_v scripture_n against_o they_o what_o say_v they_o the_o lutherian_n bring_v scripture_n for_o they_o but_o they_o must_v expound_v scripture_n as_o our_o father_n do_v i_o answer_v again_o answer_n we_o do_v not_o deny_v so_o to_o doc_fw-fr for_o we_o may_v do_v it_o well_o enough_o and_o i_o may_v say_v with_o saint_n cirillus_n cirillus_n we_o keep_v the_o faith_n of_o our_o father_n and_o of_o the_o church_n so_o far_o as_o we_o ought_v and_o use_v their_o interpretation_n so_o much_o as_o they_o require_v but_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o ancient_a papist_n father_n of_o the_o church_n do_v agree_v in_o the_o same_o matter_n no_o otherwise_o then_o we_o expound_v it_o therefore_o why_o do_v these_o holy_a worker_n bring_v for_o they_o the_o church_n s._n augustine_n 11._o one_o of_o the_o most_o catholic_a &_o godly_a doctor_n of_o they_o all_o in_o his_o book_n which_o he_o write_v of_o predestination_n in_o the_o xi_o chapter_n say_v in_o this_o wise_a true_o where_o as_o the_o apostle_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o ro._n write_v these_o word_n therefore_o be_v our_o inhetaunce_n give_v we_o by_o faith_n through_o grace_n because_o the_o promise_n may_v stand_v firm_a and_o steadfast_a i_o marvel_v say_v he_o that_o man_n have_v rather_o look_v on_o their_o o●ne_a infirm●●y_n then_o unto_o the_o firmity_n and_o steadfastness_n of_o god_n promise_n but_o here_o thou_o will_v say_v i_o can_v not_o tell_v nor_o do_v not_o know_v the_o will_n of_o god_n of_o i_o well_o then_o do_v thou_o know_v thine_o own_o will_n of_o thyself_o if_o thou_o do_v beware_v for_o he_o y_fw-mi think_v he_o stand_v let_v he_o take_v heed_n y_fw-fr he_o fall_v not_o therefore_o in_o so_o much_o as_o thou_o know_v nether_a his_o will_n nor_o thou_o own_o will_n then_o why_o shall_v not_o a_o man_n rather_o put_v his_o trust_n and_o hope_n in_o you_o which_o be_v more_o certain_a than_o in_o that_o which_o be_v less_o certain_a but_o say_v they_o again_o where_o it_o be_v speak_v if_o thou_o believe_v thou_o shall_v be_v save_v there_o
