the death not onely outwardlye in wordes but euen to the faces of our aduersaries in inwarde zeale vnto the death framing our affections our heartes our mindes and all the powers of our bodies to bring foorth the fruites of that profession which we seeme to holde and as we haue the names of protestantes so if we protest before men in our workes and before God in our consciences the truth of his word then let the serpent seeke what shiftes he can let sathan do his worst and the red dragon the bishop of Rome and all the rabble of his adherents waite till they be weary and their multitudes make what glorious shews of threats for our ouerthrow they can yea let all the kings of the earth and great princes of the world that haue taken vp the swoord against Christ and his spouse the church frame all their forces and yet shall his little flocke be safe vnder the shadow of his winges The mighty power of the Lorde hath from the beginning defended maintained and alwayes preserued the true doctrine of his worde and the true professours thereof and let vs not feare but he will to the end defend maintaine and preserue the same hee hath promised it that will surely performe it Whatsoeuer is written was written for our learninge that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might haue hope namely constantly for the loue of the kingdome of God to stande in the day of triall For as the worde of God is pure simple and without anye kinde of spot or wrinckle So it requireth those that be professors therof to be pure simple and constant without deceit without dissimulation or hipocrisie For the world the multitude loue shiftes starting holes meanes to deceiue God and good men And therfore brag the enimies of God and say they haue the whol world on their side the greatest part of people And the reason is because their deuises and traditions are of the world For saith Christ vnto his disciples if you were of the worlde the worlde woulde loue you but I haue chosen you out of the world and therfore doth the world hate you We see then that the way to become true christians is not to ioyne with the multitude to tread the steps of the greatest part of the world for so shall we shake hands with the Elders and rulers with the whole troupe of the Iewes with Pilate with Herode and the Emperours power to rise vp againste Christe and his truth as now the greatest part of the world do which God forbid many are called but few are chosen Then are not the greatest part of the world that heare the word of God the seruants of God The truth is not tyed to the multitude nor to the outwarde shew of coloured christian conuersation but hee that feareth the Lorde which is in the heart and worketh righteousnesse which is also in the outwarde conuersation is accepted with him The multitude then make not any thing at all for vs or against vs the truth shall no doubt triumph mightely preuaile when we shall see Pharaoh of Rome and all the huge host of his confederacie ouer throwne in the red sea of their owne inuentions For he that brought Israell out of Aegypt he that dryed vp the red sea he that brought water out of the hard rocke and he that hath done so many wonderfull thinges for our fathers of olde which we maye applye for our comfort hee which hath brought foorth and reuealed so manye treacheries and treasons againste our moste gratious Queene and common-weale of late daies practized he euen he shall deliuer vs from the Romishe tyrannie he shall drye vp the sea of their blouddy conspiracies that they shall not touch vs or hinder vs but shall tourne them euen vppon their owne pates he shal bring the water of perfect knowledge out of the rocke of his worde whereof all the faithfull of the world shall drincke Therefore with a louing consent let vs make the sweet harmonye of thankes giuing for his moste gratious deliueraunce for which our mouthes maye rightlye bee filled with laughter at the foolishe deuises of these wicked men and our heartes bee replenished with ioye of the mercifull protection of the Lorde who hath as we see done great thinges for vs alreadye for which euerye true Christian hath great cause to reioyce The righteous loue to speake of this they loue to consider it and likewise to praise the the mighty power of the God of heauen for the performance of it If the children of Israell were much bound vnto the goodnes of God for their deliuerye from the bondage of their bodies in Aegypt how far greater cause haue we to thinke our selues bound vnto the mighty hand of God and his aboundaunt mercies that hath brought vs out of the bondage of soule and bodye from the Romish Babylon chaunging our spirituall captiuitie into spirituall liberty blacke idolatry into the true seruice of God in knowledge and true seruice of whome standeth oure saluation our assured helpe and infallible defence againste the multitude of all the aduersaries of Gods truth Let vs therefore reioyce and singe that most acceptable song which most pleaseth the Lorde namely the vnfeyned reformation of liues and conforming them after a more dutiful sort to God and Christ that our conuersations before men maye witnes our perfect Christianity and our certaine being the children of God let vs beautifie the chambers of our hearts with the flourishinge braunches of a godlye life let vs morti●ie and kill all those euil and peruerse affections which break forth and darken the bright beames of that profession which euery true christian ought to hold Let vs beare the sayles of our conuersations euen with the wind of the worde of God And let the holye Ghost rule the sterne and guide the rowder of our desires leaste that we cracke the barke of our religion againste the rockes of slaunderous toonges So shall our aduersaries be ashamed to mutter against vs for liuing contrarye to that which we professe and God who is our onely defence shall be pleased with vs in his son Christ and continue his wonted protection towards vs in this life so that we his little flocke shall not be dismaied at anye rumors of warres and other like threats of Gods enimies but shall though not of anye deserts of ours worthy in the end through the merites of Christ be partakers of the kingdom of heauen which God for his Christes sake graunt vs. Amen A Psalme of praise wherein the mercie the loue the prouidence strength and wisdome of God is remembred his mindfulnes of the afflictions and daungerous estate of his seruants in the time of their greatest need and the deserued confusion of the aduersaries of his
