[ A] An other dowte there is, whether the chyrche or congregacyon be before the gospell, or the gospell before the chyrche. whyche questyon is as harde to solue, as whether the father be elder then the sonne, or the sonne elder then his father. For the hole scrypture and all byleuynge hertes testyfye, that we are begottē thorow the worde. Wherfore yf the worde begette the congregacyon, and he that begetteth is before hym that is begotten: then is the gospell before the chyrche. Pause also Romano. ix. sayth: how shall they call on whom they beleue not. And how shall they byleue without a precher. That is, Cryste must fyrste be preached ere men can byleue in hym. And then it foloweth, that the worde of the preacher muste be before the fayth of the byleuer. And therfore in as mych as the word is before the fayth, and fayth maketh the congregacyon: therfore is the worde or gospell before the congregacyon.
