in the Scriptures, but contrarie to them: how false this is, I referre it to be tried by these places here following. They that trust in the Lord, shall be as mount Sion, which cannot be moued, but remaineth for euer. Being iustified by faith, we haue peace towards God through our Lord Iesus Christ, by whom also through faith, we haue had this accesse vnto his grace, wherein wee stand, and reioyce vnder the hope of the glorie of God. Ye haue not receiued the spirit of bondage to feare againe: but ye haue receiued the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Fa∣ther. The same spirit beareth witnes with our spirit, that we are the children of God. Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods chosen? it is Christ that iustifieth: Who shall condemne? &c. Who shall separate vs from the loue of Christ? shall tribu∣lation, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakednes, or perill, or sword, &c. I am perswaded that neither death, nor life, nor Angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come neither height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to separate vs from the loue of God, which is in Christ Iesus our Lord. It is God which stablisheth vs with you in Christ, and hath annointed vs, who hath also sealed vs, and hath giuen the earnest of the spirit in our hearts. In whom also ye haue trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, euen the Gospell of your saluation, wherein also after ye beleeued, ye were sealed with the holy spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance, &c. Let vs therefore goe with confidence or bold∣nes vnto the throne of grace, that wee may receiue mercie, and finde grace to helpe in time of neede. So God, willing more a∣bundantly to shew vnto the heires of promise the stablenes of his counsell, bound himself by an oth, that by two immutable things, wherein it is impossible that God should lie, we might haue strong consolation, which haue our refuge to lay hold vpon that hope that is set before vs, which hope we haue, as an ancre of the soule, both sure and stedfast, and it entreth into that which is within the vaile, &c. Let vs draw neere with a true hart in assurāce of faith, our hearts being pure from an euill conscience, and washed in our bodies with pure water, let vs keepe the profession of our hope without wauering (for he is faithfull that promised.) Ther∣fore by faith, that by grace the promise might be sure to all the
