¶ A compendyouse Somme of the very Christen relygyon gathered faythfully out of holy scripture necessary for all them that rede the olde and new Testament ¶ Thys is my derely beloued sonne for whose sake onely I am apeased hym se that ye heare and obaye Esai xlij a.

Luc. iij. d. ix e. ij Pe. i. c. ¶ TraÌ„slated by George Ioye the yere of our lorde M.D.xxxv In Septembre Fyrst of all the holy Byble wryteÌ„ techeth vs y t there is but one God almyghty for all alone sufficyent hauynge nether begynnynge nor endynge which of his owne mercyable goodnes with his worde created all thynges of whome all thynges procede withoute whom there is no thyng he is iuste and mercyfull it is he that worketh all thinges in euery thynge accordynge vnto hys godly wyll vnto whoÌ„ it is not laufull to saye wherfore doist thou thus or thus ¶ Furthermore it is to be knowen and constantly to be beleued this same our God almyghty to haue had created Adam the fyrst man according vnto the ymage and symylitude conceyued in his mynde and to haue had constytute hym the lorde ouer all the creatures in the erth The whiche Adam thorow the enuy of the deuyll dysobaying the precept of his maker became fyrst of all men synner brought in synne into thys worlde yea such one and so greuouse a synne that we all which haue ben brought forth and begoteÌ„ of hym after the flesshe be subiectes bond men to synne to deth damnacyoÌ„ redacte and captyued eueÌ„ vnder the tyraÌ„nouse yoke of the deuyll It is also to be ê‘fitly knoweÌ„ and stedfastly to be beleued that of God the father oure sauyour Jesus Chryste hys sonne was promysed vnto y e sayd Adam vnto Abraham Isaac Jacob Dauyd and vnto the other fathers to delyuer them from synne and from the tyrannye of the deuyll not only them but vs also as many as lyke theÌ„ with a perfayte and lyuely fayth truste and cleaue vnto thys promyse and vnto this same Jesu Chryst whyche hope beleue to obtayne this delyueraunce is of hym and thorow hym only Thys promyse is often tymes repeted and reherced in the bokes of the olde Testament ye eueÌ„ that same olde Testament is the very self couenaunt and promis none otherwise then this called the new testameÌ„t techeth vs y â— same promys now to be fulfylled ¶ But yet whyle this helth deliuerauÌ„ce then promised was wayted loked for of the fathers the lawe wherby synne myght be knowen was geuen For verely such is the nature dysposycyon of man that not onely he cannot but also he wyll not acknowledge confesse hym self to be a synner namely that same synner whyche hath nede of this so holy holsom a promyse The lawe therfore was geueÌ„ of God wherby men myght knowe what thyng synne is ye that theÌ„ selues to be very synners seyng them selues with glad redy will whiche God requyreth to do nothyng that the lawe coÌ„maundeth but rather with an euyll wyll without loue but constrayned there vnto by fere of hell payne which the lawe threteneth saying Cursed be he that is not permaneÌ„t whole fast cleuyng vnto the commaundementes of the lawe to performe theÌ„ in very dede Thys law therfore I saye was geueÌ„ that therby synne and the malyce of mannes hert once knowen meÌ„ shuld the more ferueÌ„tly thyrste for the coÌ„myng of Christ which shuld redeme them froÌ„ theyr synnes as it was fygured vnto the Jewes by dyuerse ceremonyes oblacyons sacrifyces prescribed set forth of God before theyr eyes not that these thinges shuld take away theyr synnes but that they shuld admonysshe and teche them to be taken away in tyme to come by fayth by that sauyng helth promysed in Chryst which ceremonyes oblacyons c. are now abolysshed gone by the coÌ„myng of Christ which is y e very sacrifyce oblacyoÌ„ only y t apeaced the fathers wrath toke awaye all synne ¶ At the last we are taught by the bokes of the new TestameÌ„t which are the second part of the Bible that Christ then promised figured in y â— olde TestameÌ„t was sent vs of the father at the tyme determyned appoynted with hym self that is to wete eueÌ„ when all iniquyte and synne most abouÌ„ded flowed ouer all He was not sent for that any man by hys owne good dedys had deserued his commyng for all were synners but because he beyng so trew of hys promyse wolde geue vs the plentuouse ryches of his grace fauour which he had promysed vs. In y e new testameÌ„t therfore it is playnly entreted wryteÌ„ that Jesus Christ the very lambe veryly offred vp is come to reconcyle vs vnto our father paying vpoÌ„ the crosse y e paynes dewe for our synnes to delyuer vs oute of the bondage of the deuyll whoÌ„ we serued in synne to get vs to be the chyldern of God geuyng vs the very peace traÌ„quyllyte of mynd that hence forthe we fere no more hell whiche fere is put awaye by fayth confydeÌ„ce ferme adsured trust whiche out father geueth vnto vs allewryng drawyng vs vnto his sonne For fayth is the gyft of God whereby we beleue Chryst to haue had comen in to thys world to saue the synners which fayth is of such power of so grete effycacy y t who so haue it they wyll couer desyre to do performe accordyng to y e ensample of Christ all the offyces and dedys of charyte For fayth once receyued God geueth hys holy spirit by whom he coÌ„seygneth and marketh all that beleue whiche spirit is the pledge as ye wold say the ernest peny certifying vs to possede that lyfe eternall ye and he testifyeth vnto our herte spirit graffyng ther into suche a fayth that we are sure and certyfyed that we be the chyldern of God y e spirit powrynge therwith into our inward man y t same charite loue which Paule descrybeth setteth forth vnto the CorynthiaÌ„s For thys faythis sake confydence in Christ which is effectuouse by charite shewyng herselfe clerely in y â— worâ—â—s of loue excytyng and mouyng man vnto them For this same fayth ê sake I saye are we iustyfyed that is to saye the father of Christ which also is become out father thorow Christ our brother rekeneth vs for ryghtuouse for hys owne chyldern of hys owne mere mercy and graciouse fauour not imputyng vnto vs our synnes ¶ And to coÌ„clude with fewe wordes ye shall knowe that Christ is now come to thentent y t we thorow hym pourged puryfyed from our synnes that is to saye consecrated into the vse of the father to serue hym in good
