We greatly reioyce vnder the hope of the glorie of God: And hope maketh not ashamed. Finally we haue passed alreadie from death to life, by faith in Christc 1.1, because what we possesse through hope, we know shalbe as certainly, as if it were in verie deed, already bestowed on vs. Yet shal we attaine the full possession & consummation therof afterward in the time that God hath ordained, in which, after the number of those that shal be saued is fulfilled. Christ our redeemer will appeare vnto vs from heauen.
