caste hym downe to hell perpetualy coÌ„dempne him When therfore the temptor shal lasche at vs which lyke temptacions we maye not shrinke we may not be afraid we may not be discoraged but coÌ„mend our self wholy to CHRISTE hange vpon him who is wholy oures who hath geuin him self wholy to vs so that synne dethe nor hel hath nothing to do with vs. CHRIST with a inestimable price his owne blood hathe deliueryd vs from the tyranny of the deuil and euer lastinge dampnacioÌ„ he is become our innocency our life and our iustice Let vs take hede in any ways that we turne not our hartes from CHRISTE crucifyed Yf we cleue to him we are set vpon a sure and inexpugnable rocke againste the whiche all the power of hell is able to do nothinge So that we may boldly exclame and euery one say with CHRISTE I prouided the Lorde afore my eys all way Psal xvi for he is at my righte elbowe that I shulde not be mouyd therefore my harte hathe be gladde and my tonge hath reioysed moreouer my felsshe shall reste in hope By faithe in CHRISTE we become the sonnes of GOD the bretherne and coheires of Christ and partakers of euerlastinge life by this faith departing hence we shall go to the kingdome preparyd for the electe afore the beginnynge of the world And if in the feruentnes of these temptacioÌ„s our faithe begin to wauer yf we do not bere pacientlye the will of oure heuinlye Father if oure loue towarde god waxe faint and cold yf oure hope beginne to be feble weake and therfore we begin to feare lest god and we be not all at a full point but that he is yet displeasyd with vs which tentacion surely is very greuous painful daungerous and hard to ouercome we must call to remembrance Christ to haue sufferyd for vs so intollerable and inuincible tentacions that there apperyd no help no comfort no refuge wherin GOD and the whole world semyd to haue forsaken him and to be against him In somouche that he exclamyd O my god o my GOD why haste thou forsaken me Oh here was a greuous tentacion A sharpe and a bitter death that CHRISTE sufferid for vs and all to make the way of the crosse and deathe easy vnto vs. Therfore seing that CHRISTE of his owne free wyll caste him selfe into the felinge of so intollerable paine calamity and anxiety GOD our most louinge Father beinge therwith contente vndoubtydlye he knowith and consyderyth our infirmite vndoubtydly he will not deale with vs accordinge to the rigour of the law but will bere muche with vs and pardon many thinges to our infirmity Doth not CHRIST speake to al men dothe he not call men when he saith Come vnto me all you that do labour and are laden and I shal refresh you howe can ther be any greater consolacioÌ„ howe could CHRISTE speake more mercyfully to vs. There be many thinges that pinche vex and trouble man greuously but what thinge is it that can trouble the conscience of a synner more thaÌ„ whan he doubteth of the mercy of god then whan he fearethe leaste GOD will cast him of then whaÌ„ he can not persuade him self to conceaue any trust of gods mercy but Imagine that as a witheryd member he shal be cut of and cast away Here we had nede of christes preseÌ„t helpe here we had nede of spedy coÌ„forte lest this violent tempest ouerwhelme and drowne vs. But let vs not feare CHRISTE is no dissembler he wyll stande by his worde he wyll perfourme hys promyse He wyll helpe and refresshe Therefore when we begynne to trymble and feare in oure conscyence when we begin to doubte of goddes mercy when we perceaue our faithe to be feable Lette vs forthwith call vpon GOD and that feruently and that indesinantly leuen from the bottome of oure hart that he tourne not his face from vs. Lette vs power before hym all that dothe trouble vs. Let vs disclose to hym oure myserye oure imbecillitie oure incredulity Let vs crye with the disciples lorde increase oure faith Luc. xvii And with the Father of the Lunaticke Lorde we beleue helpe our incredulity And with the prophet Marci ix Lorde make hast to helpe vs. For thy mercy is aboue all thy workes O moste louing O moste mercyful father lord god of our healthe Ps lxix our only help and refuge Enter not into iudgemente with thy seruauntes Christe is our iustice our redemption and innoceÌ„cy he for vs hathe sufferyd most bitter cruel death Let these thynges moue the o father of mercy For thys thy son our sauior Christes sake haue mercy vpoÌ„ vs confirme and strength our harte in faith comfort vs with the consolacions of thy holy sprit that we may finally optayne Ioy euerlastyng through Iesus christ Amen After this sort if we laborynge wresting and striuinge with our imbecillity accusing afore god lamentinge our pusilianimity and incredulity do catch hold of christ and cleue fast to hym earnestlye and feruently desirynge hys help that he wyl vouchsafe to take our place to supply that is lackinge in vs. These thinges if we do surely all thinges shal be well we shal auoyde and escape easly all daunger peryl we shal be safe enogh For these two to beleue in Christ and with hart to desire faith doth not much differ the one froÌ„ the other For though we fele yet great weaknes and imperfection in our self yet this ought to comfort vs that god wylleth commandeth that he shoulde be called vpon that he hath promised to here and help these that call ryghtly vpon him Now as nothing is more iustly or necessarily desired theÌ„ true faith euen so god hearith no praier soner or more gladly then whan maÌ„ findyng no goodnes in hym selfe doth acknowlege his owne infirmity his owne mysery his owne beggerlines dothe accuse and lament his owne incredulity with depe sighes harty desires calleth for faith These sighes these desires these prayers this litle sparke of faithe is the very sede of GOD wrought in vs by him which saith of Christe by the Prophet Esay that he shall not quenche the smokinge flaxe nor breake the brusyd rede Therfore let vs stedfastly beleue or at the leaste earnestelye and hartely pray that we may beleue bewaylyng afore god our lacke of faithe whiche thinges if we do we nede not doubt but we be acceptid of god we be taken for his childreÌ„ For it is not for noughte nor in vaine that he hathe layde our imbecillitie and synnes vpon his only begoten sonnes backe In Mathew Math. v. it is said blessed be those that mourne for thei shal be coÌ„forted blessyd be those that hoÌ„ger after righteousnes for they shal be satisfied These words are spokeÌ„ al so to vs they may iustly be applyed to vs we mourne are sory in our hartes that we haue mispendyd our life paste We wishe and desyre yea we eueÌ„ honger thriste after righteousnes Lette vs be of good chere we shall optayne oure desire we shal be comfortyd we shall be counted iuste a fore GOD for CHRISTE oure sauior his sake Fynally let vs after the example of Christ and sainte Steuin commend our soules into the handes of GOD our heuenly father sainge euery one after this maner O Most mercyfull father I coÌ„meÌ„d into thy holly haÌ„des my spirit yea thy spirite for thou hast create it thou haste commytted it for a tyme to the body thou haste geuen it thy owne Image and similitude Thou haste sent for the redeÌ„ption of it thi owne most derely belouyd sonne to shed his blood This the spirite I resigne into thi handes O GOD of all mercy I am thyne all that I am I beseche the refuse not thy owne but receaue kepe and place me in euerlasting glory for the sake of Iesus Christ thy only begoten sonne Amen Â¶ Imprinted at London by Iames Burrel dwellyng without the Northe gate of Paules in the cornor house of Pater noster rowe
