Luke 3. 8.

The text.

Yeeld therefore ∴ fruites worthie of penance.

The note.

Fruites of penance be workes satisfactorie.

The answer.

Men may be satisfied for offences made toward them, by the fruites of penance or repentance, but that God also may be so sa∣tisfied, all the papists in the world are neuer able to prooue▪ For if men by their works might satisfie for their sinnes, then what néede they séeke for remedie out of them selues, and to what pur∣pose is the death and satisfaction of Christ? But it is no mar∣uaile though you hold this fast, for it is one of the best things that the Pope hath to heate his kitchin with.
