He is called a deuout man, and one that feard God, verse 22, Therefore now, before he receiued the Sacrament of Baptisme, he was conuerted vnto the acknowledging of the true God, nei∣ther was he vtterly without faith in the Messias. Besides he is said to pray continually, and his almes were accepted, and his prayers are said to be heard of God. But it is impossible for any man, or for any mans worke to please God without faith. Heb. 11.6. Ther∣fore hee had the beginnings of faith in Christ, and therefore was now iustified and regenerate, although as yet, hee was not instructed in the full & cleere knowledge of Christ, and yet knew not that he was come. For which cause Peter was sent vnto him, who should more fully teach him.
