PATIENCE under the CROSSE.
Helpe us to deny our selves,* 1.1 and to take up our Crosse daily and follow our Saviour.
Thou hast fore-told us, that* 1.2 in the world we shall have tri∣bulation.—And that through* 1.3 much tribulation we must enter into the Kingdome of God.
Let us therefore reckon with* 1.4 our selves that the sufferings of this present time, are not wor∣thy to be compared with the glory which shall bee revealed in us.
—That it may be given unto us,* 1.5 in the behalfe of Christ, not on∣ly to beleeve on him, but also to suffer for his sake.
descriptionPage 96
Let us run with patience the* 1.6 way that is set before us.
Looking unto Iesus the au∣thor* 1.7 and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the crosse.
Consider him that endured* 1.8 such contradiction of sinners a∣gainst himselfe, lest you be wea∣ried and faint in your mindes.
Thinke it not strange concer∣ning* 1.9 the fiery triall which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you.
Rejoyce in as much as yee are* 1.10 partakers of Christs sufferings, that when his glory shall be re∣vealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
If ye be reproched for the* 1.11 name of Christ, happy are ye, for the spirit of glory, and of God resteth upon you.
