you by Philosophy and vain deceipt after the tradicions of men after the elemeÌ„tes of the world not after Christ For in hym doth dwel al fulnes of the godhed corporally and you are in hym fulfilled whiche is the hed of rule power Now Paule sheweth theÌ„ what thei should escheue and flee that thei should escheue all psudoapostles false deceiuers which by subtile crafte went aboute to deceiue theim and to plucke theÌ„ from Christ and from true faith in Christ to errors heresies euil and pernicious doctryne that by probable reasons and perswasions taken of mannes doctrynes of the wisedome of the fleshe of tradicions of menne of Ceremonies and of other vain thynges so wee knowe it is the office of a good pastor not onely to teache good thynges and to exhorte to the same with all perswasions but also to monish men to be ware of euill thynges as of euill doctors and euill doctrine As first he willeth to take hede that no man catche theim as their praye and steale vpon them as vnwarned of false deceiptfull iugglers that by craftie and subtile meanes go about to deceiue theim and by carnall wisedome bryngeth theim from the truth to falshed form veritie to fables and lies errors heresies euill opinions and corrupte iudgementes and so plucke you from Christe to the deuill from light to darknes from life to death And here the Apostle alludeth to suche as lye priuely in watche to take and snare other vnwares and so thei take theim and cary them awaie and make theim their praye and bonde men or prisoners euen so do these false teachers seducers of other deceiue the symple by faire flatteryng wordes pretendyng greate holines but the truth knowen they teach no holines at all but muche Idolatry and supersticion false trust and vain hope lies for truthe and death for life sekyng health and saluacion where none is to bee founde suche were thei that did not ascribe to Christe fully our whole iustificacion sanctificacion redeÌ„pcion remission of synnes and life euerlastyng that made men to runne hether and thether to seke sauiours redemers and helpers not to God alone and suche be all thei that seke to come to the father of heauen by another waie then by Christe alone 2 Lette no man deceiue you by Philosophie vain deceiuyng after constitucions of men after the elementes of the worlde and not after Christe Now he sheweth foure thynges specially by the whiche pseudoapostles false preachers deceiued theim The firste he saieth it was by Philosophie of the Heathen Philosophiers inuented and excogitated by manne contrary to Gods Lawe and will measuryng all thynges by naturall reason and worldy witte and that to bee of no truthe that naturall reason could not attein vnto And here he dooth not reiecte all Gentile Philosophie for there is many thynges in Gentile philosophie that bee not repugnaunt to holy scriptures but agre very well to it and those doctrines are not to be coÌ„tempned but that doctryne is to be refused and contempned that is contrary to holy scriptures that plucketh meÌ„ froÌ„ Christ and from the studie of holy scriptures and from the true iudgement of holy scriptures The Apostle would wee should forme our iudgemeÌ„tes after holy scriptures and our maners to folowe holy scripture and not that we should iudge after the Heathen Philosophiers haue maners like to the Heathen but he would haue vs rectifie our iudgementes after Christe and his doctryne to gather good maners in al veritie and truthe iustice and righteousnes of the veritie it self and not of that doctryne where as falsed is And therefore I thynke thei do euill and not after the counsaill of sainct Paule whiche thei theim selfes do and willeth other to do so specially studious youthe first to rede and studie humain Philosophie by statutes byndeth all youth to studie three or foure yeres Philosophie then after to geue their study to diuinitie but this is a preposterous order in study and doeth muche hurte to many young men studious and peruerteth their iudgementes and maners and maketh Heathen and Gentile maners to bee so graffed in youth that scarse thei can bee plucked our again and some will neuer forget their GeÌ„tile maners thei haue learned of the Gentile philosophy in their youth and some be so geueÌ„ to the loue of Philosophie that for it thei conteÌ„pne diuinitie and thynke the knowlege of Gods holy woorde but a rude knowlege and nothyng so greate learnyng as is the learnyng of Philosophie for the whiche thei forsake all other learnyng sticketh still to Philosophie and in it coÌ„sumeth all their life as some be drouned in Tully some in Plato some in Seneca some in one Philosophiers doctryne some in another that no learnyng sauoreth in his mouth but that smelleth of this or that philosophier in whose learnyng he hath been brought vp in studie of it and will scarse by plucked from the sauor of his wyne put first in newe and young bottelles and this is the cause of muche inpietie error and heresie corrupt iudgement ignoraunce and blyndnes in the knowlege of Gods worde For if the studious youthe of the Vniuersities were as diligently vnder sober sad discrete and learned menne brought vp in the earnest studie of Gods holy woorde as thei be in Aristotiles Plato and Ciceros woorkes there should bee muche more Godly learnyng better iudgementes and better maners and muche more better liuyng then there is What is the cause of errors but ignoraunce of scripture as Christ said to the Sadduces Math. xxii Ye erre not knowyng the scriptures so do many erre because thei know not the holy scriptures and the truthe of Goddes will and the cause is thei bee brought vp froÌ„ their youth not in the true knowlege of Gods woorde will and pleasure Therefore me thynke that hye Maiestrates and Rulers to whoÌ„ perteineth as wel to procure the health of the soule as of the body of their obedient subiectes not onely that they should bee learned in holy scriptures to beare good affeccion and mynde to holy scriptures and to see these thynges to bee doen bothe in themselfes and in their subiectes that holy scripture willeth euery man to doo in his vocacion but also that their subictes should haue sufficient knowlege in holy scriptures that thei might iudge rightely and liue Godly and that at no tyme thei should declyne from Goddes woorde and commaundement whiche euery man muste kepe that shal bee saued and come to saluacion and life by Christ The secoÌ„d to beware thei be not deceiued and that is vain decepcion what learnyng so euer it be that deceiueth men and bryngeth them froÌ„ the truth of Christe and from the veritie of Gods worde that doctrine is called vain deceipt for it bringeth into errors heresies false doctryne whether it be Logique Philosophie Rethorique or any other wisedom of the fleshe or of the world that hath appearaunce of truthe or of holines

as our redempcion reconciliacion remission of sinnes iustice righteousnes before GOD eternall life and felicitie all other giftes of God we receiue by Christ onely of Gods mere mercie and grace and not of our merites or deseruynges or of our workes merites or peticions of sainctes Al fulnes of the father is called to dwel in Christ not the Christ now hath receiued that thyng that he had not before for all goodnes of the father he had before as Ihon .v. saieth As the father hath life in hymself so he hath geuen to the sonne to haue life in hymself as the father raised ded men to life so doth the sonne And. Iho. xviii Christ said to his father glorify me with thy selfe with the same glory that I had before the world was created but all fulnes of the father is called to dwell in Christ that all men should knowe all the goodnes thei haue to come of God by Christe to theÌ„ that all that beleueth in Christ shuld not perishe but bee saued and should haue life euerlastyng by Christ with the father 4 And by hym to reconsile all thynges He goeth forwardes describyng what benefites wee haue receiued by Christ he saith that al thynges whiche wer out of Gods fauor to bee reconciled again to Gods fauor and loue as all meÌ„ whiche either for their originall sinne or for their actuall synne were out of Gods fauor and had offended GOD should by Christe onely bee reconciled to Gods fauour and haue remission of their synnes and be made partakers of euerlastyng life and that onely by Christe So by Christ alone all thinges in yearth or in heaueÌ„ be brought again to Gods fauor And you whiche was farre of and enemies in mynde and in euill workes now he hath reconciled you again in the body of his fleshe by death that he should make you without fault without all spottes in his sight Before the Apostle shewed in parte what Christe was now he turneth his sermon to these ColossiaÌ„s and sheweth what benefite thei haue receiued by Christ and that thei should loue Christ the better bee more thankefull and geue more thankes to God for their health life and saluacion he sheweth what thei wer before thei receiued Christes benefite then thei were farre from life and saluacion from God alienated by many vices and sinnes bothe originall and actuall in harte mynde will iudgement and in many euill workes as in Idolatrie supersticion fornicacion adultery errors and heresies for lacke of knowlege and of Goddes grace and by their naughtie liuyng in the whiche thei wer brought vp in and accustomed from their young age that thei committyng great and abhominable sinnes in the sight of God thei thought themselfes not to synne for thei knewe not what was synne nor the daungier of synne nor yet God their creator and maker Suche ther be many in the worlde brought vp in ignoraunce and blindnes supersticioÌ„ and Idolatrie thynketh supersticion and Idolatrie to please GOD well the cause whereof is euill bringyng vp of their parentes without knowelege of God and of his will and not taught to knowe God and his pleasure to bee dooen of vs his creatures and seruauntes as we haue promised in our baptisme by our Godfathers promisyng for vs. And here he sheweth some parte of their states Firste that thei were farre from God from life healthe and saluacion by reason of their ignorauÌ„ce and euill bryngyng vp in vice and synne from their yong age vnto that daie thei harde the worde of God preached vnto theÌ„ And here wee maie learne not to sticke much to those thinges wherein wee haue been brought vp from our yong age whiche parauenture haue been coumpted vertue and worshippyng of God yet the truth knowen thei haue been supersticion and Idolatrie as was Pilgrimage deckyng giltyng of Images settyng vp of candelles before images also again thei wer farre from GOD and from the house of Israel hauyng no title to claime or chalenge any parte of life or saluacion ye nothyng knowyng or myndyng life and health to perteine to theim that wer Gentiles as is more declared at large Ephe. ii But these that were farre of Christe hath made theim partakers of life and of heauenly ioye blisse and eternall felicitie with God Secondly thei wer enemies to God to their awne saluacion bothe in mynde and in euill woorkes thei had their myndes infected and poysoned with euill opinions errors and heresies euill and wicked iudgementes and full of euill woorkes Seruyng not the liuyng GOD true and iuste but many false Idolles ded Images stockes and blockes and ofte tymes thynkyng themselfes to serue the true and liuyng GOD when thei liued in al supersticion and Idolatry but these enemies Christe hath reconciled again to the fauor of GOD the father in the body of his flesh by death that by death of the Crosse whiche he suffered in his humain body for the redempcion of al bothe Iewe and Gentile that will beleue in him And thus Christes death was a full and sufficient satisfaccioÌ„ for the synnes of the whole world for all theim that shal be sanctified and saued Hebre. x. 2 That he should make vs holy and blameles and without spottes in his sight Here is shewed for what ende and purpose Christe reconciled vs to the fauor of the father that we should returne again to vice synne and to our old naughtie liuing No no. But that wee should be holy and liue Godly and verteously knowe Gods will kepe it And that we should bee fautles that no notable faute crime or synne might be iustely imputed to vs of menne and that we should so beare behaue our selfes in all oure affaires that wee might be without reprofe that our faith should be so pure and stedfast garnished with all maner of good workes that we ded froÌ„ synne should liue to iustice as sainct Peter saieth i. Peter .ii. Here wee maie learne how pure holy a life all men should liue not onely the Bishoppe Pastor and prieste but also all laie men that desireth to bee felowes of saluacion and glory by Christ If you remain in faith grouÌ„ded and stable and will not bee remoued froÌ„ the hope of the Gospell whiche you haue harde that was preached to all creatures vnder heauen of the whiche I Paule am made a minister Nowe he sheweth howe thei shal bee blameles without faute and spott in the sight God that is if thei shal abide in true faith and by no affliccion persecucion prosperitie or aduersitie decline or shrynke from true faith but bee constaunt and stable in it founded vpon Christ the true foundacioÌ„ and corner stone cleuyng vnto Christe and to his doctryne And here the Apostle reproueth al vnfaithfull that be doubtfull inconstaunt and waueryng in faith moued and tossed hether and thether with euery wynde and blast and tempest of wether of threatenynges of men or hope of fauor or pleasures of men And specially here is

displeased God committyng Idolatrie and muche supersticion goyng wanderyng about from one Image to another puttyng truste and confideÌ„ce in them sekyng health of body or of soule of ded stockes stones wherein was no health nor holines but from this Idolatrie and darkenes God hath deliuered vs and translated vs into his Kyngdome and made vs iunct heires with Christe to bee partakers of his glory and that not for our merites or deseruynges but onely for the merites of Christe Iesu that suffered for vs By whom wee are redemed from all captiuitie and thraldom of the deuill froÌ„ death or hell thus Christe Iesus oure onely sauior and redemer payed that rauÌ„som for vs that we wer neuer able to paie .i. Timothe ii And by Christes bloud shed for vs wee haue remission and forgeuenes of our synnes and not by the Bishop at Romes Pardons bulles or indulgence pilgrimages to Peter of Rome or to Iames at CoÌ„postella Thomas Becket at Cantorbury or to Etheldrede at Ely the Images of our Lady at WalsynghaÌ„ or at Ipswyche or to any suche like pilgrimage erected and keped for filthy lucre sake to the dishonor of God to the greate hurt of them that trusted health saluacion or life in suche pilgrimage I will not speake of the greate Idolatrie there committed Note that remission of synnes is onely by Christes bloud and by nothyng els saÌ„guis Christi nos mundauit ab omni iniquitate .i. IoÌ„is .i. The bloud of Christ hath washed vs froÌ„ our synnes and saincte Ihon. Apocalipsis .i. saieth that Christ hath wasshed vs froÌ„ our synnes in his bloud so redempcion and remission of synne is onely by Christe whiche is the Image of the inuisible God first begotten before all creatures for by hym wer all thynges created whiche are in heauen in yearth able to bee sene or not able to bee sene whether thei be thrones or Lordshippes or pollicies or Potestates all thynges by hym and in hym are created and he is aboue al thynges and all thynges are by hym Nowe the Apostle describeth very plainly what Christ is by whom we haue redempcion and by whose bloud we are purged from our synnes He saieth that Christe is the liuely Image of God the father that cannot bee sene of corporall iyes and that he is the brightnes of the glory of the father and the true image of the substaunce of the father Hebre .i. That is he is equall to the father in deitie power and substauÌ„ce and in all thynges as he is God Phili. i. To the which Christ the father hath geuen all thynges and in hym are layed vp all the treasure of the wisedoÌ„ of the father This Christ is the first begotten of all creatures that is he was before all creatures for the sonne was in the beginnyng the sonne was with God and God was the sonne and all thynges was made by hym and wtout hym was nothyng made Ihon. i. And this sonne was in glory with the father before the world was made as sainct IhoÌ„ saieth .xvii. speakyng of Christ Whiche speaketh to his father after this sorte Father glorifie me with the same glory that I had before the worlde was created Christ is called the first begotteÌ„ sonne of the father not because he was the first borne and other borne after hym but because he was before all other creatures and by whoÌ„ all other was created and hath their beeyng whether thei bee in heauen as Angelles ArchaÌ„gelles thrones and other Potestates and powers or thei be in the yearth in the water or vpon the yearth able to be sene or not able to bee sene al thei haue their creacion and beyng by Christe the onely natural sonne of God the father therefore of duetie all thynges created are bound to be obedieÌ„t to our sauiour Iesu Christe by whom we haue our creacioÌ„ our beyng redempcion iustificacioÌ„ sanctificacion iustice and righteousnes and all other mightes and powers that be good in vs for his sake onely and not of our merites or deseruynges And he is the hed of the body of the Churche whiche is the beginning first begotten of the ded that he should bee in all thynges the chief For in hym it hath pleased the father all fulnes to dwel and by hym to reconsile all thynges towardes hym and by the bloude of his Crosse to pacifie al thynges whether thei were in yearth or in heaueÌ„ that he should make peace through hymself The Apostle goeth furth shewing vs what Christ is he saith he is the hed of the body of the Churche from whence do come all goodnes to the body that is to the whole congregacion and flocke of Christe and that he is the sauer keper and defendor of the whole body of the Churche and the prouider for all necessaries to the body and that by hym is distributed to euery parte of the body necessary foode that without hym all membres doo perishe that bee not fed by hym and in hym that doo not receiue health and life of hym that bee not preserued keped by Christ and defended by Christ the true hed of the churche So Christ is the hed of the Churche and not the bishoppe of Rome as he nameth hymself would be so called whiche thyng is high blasphemy to god not to be suffered emoÌ„g Christians that any mortall man should make hymself equall with Christe and would be called by that name that is equall to God God saieth I wil geue my glorie to none other What other thyng doth the bishop of Rome go about callyng hymself the hed of the Churche but to take awaie from Christe his honor and glory and would haue it geuen to himself whiche thyng god wil not suffre Therfore let Bishops of Rome cease from that name and call theimselfes no more hed of the Churche for that is Christe onely as here Paule teacheth and all other let them beware to call Bishoppes of Rome hed of the vniuersall Churche of God least thei offende God and displease God prouokyng God to poure vpon theim his Ire and vengeaunce smite them with eternal death due to suche traÌ„gressors 2 He is the beginnyng first begotten of the ded The Greke saieth he is the beginnyng and the firste begotten of the ded as you would say he is beginnyng firste fountain and aucthor of our life health resurreccion and saluacioÌ„ hauyng al goodnes in hymself and distributyng it to other and therefore not without a cause he is chiefest in al thynges to him is due the chief place in all thynges for he is equal to the father in deitie substaunce and effecte in power and might and in all thynges 3 For it hath pleased the father that all fulnes in hym should dwel Now he sheweth by what meanes Christ is called the hed of the body of the Churche that in Christ doth inhabite dwell al fulnes of the goodnes of god the father and by Christe we receiue of Gods goodnes
