They which forgiue not other men the trespasses done vnto them, do not obtaine pardon at Gods hand in the like case.
NOw againe he that prayeth that man to forgiue him whom hee hath offended, be∣ing inwardly stirred vp to that motion vpon a remorse of the offence or wrong he hath done him, such a person is not now to bee accounted for an enemy, so as it should bee as harde a matter to loue him in this case as it was whē he was a pro∣fessed
enemie: And whosoeuer doth not vnfainedly forgiue an∣other man, which seeketh peace, the iniurie he hath done him, be∣ing penitēt for the same, let him not think by any meanes to find remission of his owne sinnes at Gods hands; because truth can∣not lie. For, how can it be vn∣knowne vnto any that heareth, or readeth the Gospell, who it is that pronounceth this saying, I am the truth? who, after that he had taught vs a forme of prayer, doth exceedingly cōmend that sentence in the same prayer, say∣ing; For, if you doe forgiue men their trespasses, your heauenly fa∣ther will also forgiue you your of∣fenses. Hee that is not awaked with so great a thunderclap, is not asleepe, but rather dead and yet is it able to raise vp the dead.
