Hitherto perteine first the two last clauses of the third Article. Of the remission of sinnes, &c. Which are thus set downe.

IT is most certeine, that the preaching of Repentance doth perteine to all men, and accuse all men. So also the promise is generall, and offereth remission of sinnes to all, according to those generall speaches, Math. 11. Come vn∣to me all ye that labour, and are heauie loaden, and I will refresh you. Also Ioh. 3. That euerie one, which beleeueth in him should not pe∣rish. Rom. 10. Euery one that beleeueth in him, shal not be confoun∣ded. Againe, He that is Lord ouer al, is rich vnto al, that cal on him. Rom. 11. The Lord hath shut vp al vnder disobedience, that he might haue mercie on al. Let euerie one comprise himselfe in this generall promise, and not giue himselfe to distrust, but let them striue that they may assent to the worde of God, & obey the holie Ghost, and desire that they may be helped, as it is said, Luc. 11. How much more wil he giue the holie Ghost to them that aske it?
