The Epistle.
SEeing that we haue diuers giftes, according to the grace that is giuen vnto vs, * 1.1 if a man haue the gift of prophesie, let him haue it, that it bee agreeing to the faith. Let him that hath an office, waite on his office. Let him that teacheth, take heed to his doctrine. Let him that exhorteth, giue attendance to his exhortation. If any man giue, let him doe it with sin∣glenesse. Let him that ruleth, doe it with diligence. If any man shewe mercie, let him doe it with cheerefulnesse.
descriptionPage [unnumbered]
Let loue be without dissimulation. Hate that which is euill, and cleaue vnto which is good. Be kind one to another with brotherly loue. In giuing honour, goe one before ano∣ther. Be not slothfull in the businesse which ye haue in hand. Be feruent in spirit. Apply your selues to the time. Reioice in hope. Be patient in tribulation. Continue in prayer. Distri∣bute vnto the necessitie of the Saints. Be ready to harbour. Blesse them which persente you. Blesse, I say and curse not. Be mery with them that are mery, weepe with them that weepe. Bee of like affection one towards another. Bee not high minded, but make your selues equall to them of the lower sort.
