dead in our mortall bodies and we be rysen vp into newnes of lyfe And in whom so euer Baptisme hath not this woorke he may wel haue the name but in dede he is no Christian. Question What strengthening of our fayth doo we finde in the vse of the Lordes Supper Aunswer The Supper of the Lorde doth strengthen my fayth that I should not doubt but as surely as I receiue the bread and wyne into my body to become of perfect substance with my flesh so Christ hath giuen him selfe wholy to become mine nourisheth my soule to euerlasting lyfe his death and passion is my delyuerance from syn his ryghteousnes is my iustification euen so surelye confirmed vnto me as if I my selfe had perfourmed in myne own body that most holy obedience vnto his father which he alone fulfilled Thus I receaue the Sacraments as signes and seales of the righteousnes that is by faith Question Sithe that this is then the doctrine of saluation that when we were dead through syn God of his great mercy sent his sōne to be made mā and dye for our syns and to fulfil all righteousnes that he myght bring againe lyfe into the worlde and so geue that life vnto euery one whosoeuer should receiue the holy Ghost to beleue that so we might be saued by fayth who before were condemned by our workes Wherto then now serueth our well doing or what auaileth it to do good works ▪ Aunswer True it is our good woorkes deserue nothing at Gods hand for in his sight our good workes are not good but all our ryghteousnes is like a defiled cloth And were they neuer so many yet by them God receiueth nothyng at our handes and all our well doyng extendeth not vnto him therfore if we wyll aske any thing by workes we must aske of them of whō we haue deserued it at the hands of God we can aske nothing And therfore as touching merite we wil let our workes alone But we haue greater causes of well doyng which ought more to enforce vs then eyther lyfe or death Wee must doo well first to shew our thankfull hartes to our Sauiour Christ and to testefie our loue towardes hym wyth keeping of his commaundementes Againe we ought to do wel that our example may call out brethren vnto righteousnes that they also may become with vs of the houshold of faith But the greatest cause of all other is that in our wel doing we set forth the glory of God and hys holy name is praysed in our good workes Thys ought to be so precious in our eyes that ten thousand hels and heauēs should not so much mooue vs This is the excellencie of vertue that God in it is gloryfied thys is the great horrour and confusion of synne that God in it is dishonoured Question Because that prayer is the especiall meanes which God wyl haue vs vse to encrease in faith tel me what belongeth to true prayer Aunswer It is requisite in true praier fyrst that we pray onely to God Secondly that we be inwardlye touched with the nede of the thing we aske Thirdlye that we grounde our prayer vppon Gods promyse Fourthly that we continue though straight we obtaine not Lastly that we aske not what we wyll but suche thinges as we are sure God hath commaunded vs to aske lyke as we haue example in the Lordes prayer Question Rehearse the Lordes prayer Aunswer Our father which art in heauē c Question What desirest thou in this praier Aunswer I desire of my heauenly Father that his holy name may be glorified among vs both in his excellent works in our liues That he onely may be had in honour all other set asyde Secondly I desire that his kingdome may florish that is that his holy spirit may beare rule within vs to all heauenly delights and that his woord may haue the preeminence to be our onely law of righteousnes which we may all obey Thirdly that we may willing ly resigne our selues to him wythout all murmuring whatsoeuer he shal do Fourthly that he wyll minister of his great ritches althings necessarye for our vocation Fiftly that our consciences maye be quiet and we haue hope that our synnes ar pardoned and blotted out of memory euen as we pardon all whosoeuer haue offended vs Lastlye that God would strengthē vs with his holye spirite and encrease our faith that we maye ouercome the world and quench the firye dartes of Satan and so at the last be partakers of his glory Question Tell me now briefly the effect of all that thou hast confessed Aunswer By the ten commaundements I see my synne and howe I haue deserued the wrath of God euerlasting damnation From which because I coulde not be delyuered by mine own strength the holy Ghost bi the preaching of the Gospel hath wrought in me fayth in Christ my Redeemer by which I am assured that he hath borne the punishment of my syns made me heyre wyth him of euerlasting life And of this that I should neuer doubt he hath geuē me two Sacraments as outward signes and tokens to be seene and felt of me that as surely as I see my selfe made partaker of them outwardlye so the holye Ghost inwardlye enstructing me I shoulde not doubt but inwardly to be partaker of Christ him selfe with al his benefites that in hym and through hym I shall haue lyfe euerlastyng And thus beyng regenerate into this liuely hope by the holy Gost my waies should be directed by the same spirit to walke in holynes righteousnes al the daies of my lyfe FINIS Act. 19. 29. a Iere. 36. 23 b An. dom 290. sub Dioclesianus et anno 1559 sub Paulo 4. 3.

rest Thys is the fourth commaundement Question What meaneth the fift commaundement Honor thy father and thy mother Aunswer To honour our Parentes is to feare loue obey and reliefe them or anye other that are vnto vs in their steede As our Princes and Rulers our Pastors and Ministers our Maisters and Teachers the aged and graye headed men And also all maner of Superiors that they may be honorable 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 ritches of his glorious misterie the Lorde reueale his secret vnto vs the Lord make vs see with all his Saintes what is the height the breadthe the length the depth that we may syng vnto him 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 it weyed them downe to hell and bound them for euer in the chaines of darknes so that in men and Angels ther is no hope But God that is ritche in mercies and whose compassions haue

no ende Hee sent hys owne sonne in the similitude of synfull flesh to be a redeemer and to condemne synne in the flesh So that this is the Sauiour sent into the world euen Iesus Christ the righ teous in whom the fulnes of the Godhead doth dwell bodely that when there was no saluation in al creatures GOD myght bee in Christ and reconcile the world vn to him selfe Question If Christ through the power and vertue of his Godhead did fulfill all righteousnes and satisfie for our sinne why then was he also made man lyke vnto vs Aunswer As it was necessary that Christ should be God or els he could not haue bene so perfect righteous as the lawe of God required nor yet haue borne the heauye burden of syn So it was also necessary that he should be mā or els he had bene ryghteous onely to hym selfe and we through him had not ben sauc tified For it could not be that we should haue bene partakers of his grace if he had not ben partaker of our nature nor we could not haue bene free from the wrath of God and rigour of hys lawe except our nature in him had felt his fathers anger he perfect man for vs had bene accursed for God had so appointed that the soule that had sinned it should die and he is not like vnto man that he should repent but the woord that he had spoken he would surelye accomplishe And therfore that God myght be righteous in hys iudgement Christe was mā like vnto vs and so in our flesh offered him selfe vnto death as if he should haue sayd vnto hys father Execute O God thy iudgements against man loe beholde me a perfect man I will beare thē And thus was our sauiour Christ perfect God that he might be stronger then Sathan and take synne away and perfect man that wee might haue part of his redemption who in all thinges was lyke vnto vs synne onely excepted Question Sithe Christ God and man hath thus payde the punishment of our sinnes are we now all discharged before God Aunswer No not euery one shall be saued by Christ but they alone that doo beleue in a true fayth take hold of his mercies Question Rehearse the Articles of this fayth Aunswer I beleue in God the father c. Question Why makest thou mention of God the Father God the Sonne God the holy Ghost seing there is but one God Aunswer As the scripture teacheth vs most plainly that ther is but one God so likewyse it teacheth me that the sa●● diuine substance is distinguished into three persons into the Father the Sonne and the holye Ghost Whych three persons are one God eternall infinite most perfect in it selfe And when God shall geue vs such eyes as shall be able to see the glorious Maiesty of his Godhead then we shall haue also such heauenlye wysedome as shall easely perceiue the distinction of the persōs In the meane while we wyll beleue the truth of hys eternall woord and hate and detest all contrary heresies Question God graunt vnto vs al this sobrietie but tel me now what is the effect of the Articles of thy fayth Aunswer First I beleue that God the Father the maker of all thinges for his sonne Christes sake is my Father and therfore loueth me Secondly that God the Sonne was made mā for me hath wrought for me what so euer was needefull to saluation Thirdlye I beleue that God the holy Gost dwelleth in my hart as the seale of myne election and perswadeth me that Christes benefites are all myne worketh in mee that I dye vnto synne and lyue vnto righteousnes Question What is it that thou callest the Catholike Church Aunswer The catholicke Churche is the whole company of the faythfull which haue ben here to fore or are now or shall be to the latter ende euen the whole fellowshyp of the elect of God I beleue the God know eth them all that he hath and wyll take them all into his glory Question What callest thou the cōmunion of saints Aunswer The cōmunion of Saintes is the society that we haue all with God through Christ Iesu the employing of all Gods benefits both spiritual temporal to the mutual help and comfort one of an other according to the measure offaith that we haue receiued Thus I beleue the Saints of God wil do and while they are in this life lyue one to another Question What is it to beleue the forgeuenes of syn Aunswer To beleue that the punishment of our synnes is fully payd by Iesus Christ and therefore freely forgeuen vnto all that beleue in him Question What beleuest thou of the resurrection of the bodie Aunswer I do beleue that after thys lyfe ended my soule shal go to God that gaue it that my body shal rest in the graue till the apointed tyme then I shal see God in my flesh I my selfe shal see him myne owne eyés shall looke vpon hym euen in this body made glorious and with out al corruption like vnto the body of Christ. Question What is it thou sayest of life euerlasting Aunswer I beleue that when God shal raise againe this body ioyne agayne in one my body soule that then my body shal be without al corruptiō no more subiect to any chaūge but that Death it selfe our last enemye shal be taken away swallowed vp in victory I shall lyue so that I shal neuer dye God strengthen vs by his spirit in the inner man that we may be able to comprehēd with al his Saints what is the lēgth the breadth the height the depth that we may know the loue of Christ and be filled with al fulnes of God. Question The Lord increase this faith in vs But tell me haue we this faith in our owne power to beleue if our selues wyll Aunswer No but faith is the gift of God euen as our saluation likewyse is of our selues there is not one of vs that cā so much as name the Lord Iesus but it is wrought in vs by the holy Ghost through the preaching of the woord confirmed and made strong by the same Spirite through the vse of the woorde and Sacramentes Question How many Sacramentes are there Aunswer Two Baptisme and the Lordes Supper Question What strength of fayth haue we through our Baptisme Aunswer Baptisme is a seale and token by whych God wyll haue me assured that my syns are forgeuen me and that my lyfe is acceptable in hys sight That like as the water washeth away the filthines of our bodies so our soules throughe the bloud of Christ are made cleane frō the corruption of syn And as after our outward washing the bodye is more comely so after our Baptisme the spirit of God woorketh in vs that syn is
