To the 36 CONSID. On these words, Neither fearing chastisement for transgressiion; nor hoping for reward, for observation, &c.

All the discourse from this line till the end of this Chapter may seeme strange, but it is sutable to what the Author holds elsewhere, for he maintaines that it is Faiith and Infidelity that shall judge us now since the Gospell, and that no other sin or vertue hath any thing to doe with us; if we believe, no sinne shall hurt us; if we believe not, no vertue shall helpe us. Therefore he saith here we shall not be punished (which word I like here better then chastizement, because even the godly are chastized but not punished) for evill doing nor rewarded for weldoing or living, for all the point lies in believing or not believing. And with this exposition the Chapter is cleare e∣nough, but the truth of the Doctrine would be examined, however it may passe for his opinion, in the Church of God there is one fun∣damentall, but else variety.
