These know not the greatness of sin / nether there own imperfection / nether the damnation of God against sin / Joan. 16. This man should not have the free remission of sin in Christ Jesus preached unto him / but the law and ten commandments / that by it / he learn first to know the horror of sin and greatness of God's Ire against it.
These know not the greatnis of sinne / nether there awne imperfection / nether the damnation of God agaynst synne / Ioan. 16. This man shuld not haue the fre remission of synne in Christ Iesu preachyd vnto hym / but the lawe and tenne commaundementes / that by it / he lerne fyrst to know the horror of sinne and greatnis of Godes Ire against it.
An other sort live without all fear / and honesty / a filthy lief / as well of those that confess the gospel / as those that hateth it: those because ⟨p. CCXXVI⟩they know not the abomination of there sin / and the severity of God's anger against it / be not mete to have the gospel of remission of sin preached unto them / but to be instructed in the law / and rather brought to a fear of God's punishment / that remaineth for all impenitent persons. they should be excommunicated / and punished with the discipline of God's word / that first they might know there sin / and acknowledge there damnation. Thus Christ taught the young man that trusted in his own works / Matth. 19. Marc. 10. Luc. 18. because he was an Hypocrite / he preached not unto him the gospel of free remission of sin / but send him to the law and to the works thereof / not that he meant man could fulfil the law / or justify him self by the works thereof: or that Christ would not he should be part taker of his mercy / but that the hypocrite might cum to acknowledge of his since / the Ire of God / and damnation of him self by the law.
