The. xviij. Question.
What they thinke of fayth, hope, and charitie?
The Answere.
TOuching these thrée, be∣ing in déede the cheefe poynts of our Christian religion, I thinke very wel and truely of them, euen as the word of god hathe taughte. Fayth is the sure confi∣dence* 1.1 of a man that is lyghtened of God, whereby he trusteth in God and in his onely son our Lord Jesus Chryst and his vndoubted worde, and that to the remission of sinnes and eternall lyfe. Hope is a stedfaste, pacient, and* 1.2 comfortable looking for of those things whiche we beléeue, cheefly if the recei∣uing of them be deferred, and appeare otherwise thā they were beléeued to be.* 1.3
descriptionPage [unnumbered]
charitie is poured into our hearts, en∣creased and preserued, and is due both to God & man, so that we should loue God aboue all things, and our neigh∣bour as our selfe, euen as Chryste also hath loued vs. The places of Scripture from whence these descriptions are ta∣ken, I haue therfore willingly left out, least this Booke shoulde grow and en∣crease vnto an huge volume.
