The Apology.

To the consequence I answere, that though God require more Faith then the beliefe of the Gospell, of them that shall be saued, yet is not this sinne when it is a∣lone without a sauing Faith, for God re∣quires more then godly sorrow of a Re∣pentant sinner, viz: an vnfained purpose to leaue his sinnes, and in time to practise new obedience: Is therefore godly sor∣row for sinne, sinne indeed in a man, be∣cause as yet hee hath not a godly purpose to leaue his sinnes wrought in him? surely such Diuinitie can neuer doe good in the Church of Christ.
