They shall not be confounded in the perilous time, and in the days of dearth they shall have enough. And again: I have been young and now am old, and yet saw I never the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. All which things Christ bringeth with him, for that we are, and are called his brethren, not because of any merit but of mere grace. If we would print these things in our hart, that we might throughly feel them, it should go well with us, but they go in at one ear and out at an other. This is that whereof S. Paul so greatly glorieth Rom. 8. As many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage to fear again: but ye have received the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry Abba, Father: The same spirit beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: if we be children, we are also heirs, even the heirs of God, and heirs annexed with Christ, if so be that we suffer with him, that ⟨p. 77⟩we may also be glorified with him.
They shall not be confounded in the perilous time, and in the dayes of dearth they shall haue enough. And againe: I haue bene yonge and now am old, and yet saw I neuer the righteous forsaken, nor his seede begging bread. All which thinges Christ bringeth with him, for that we are, and are called his brethren, not because of any merit but of meere grace. If we would print these things in our hart, yt we might throughly feele them, it should goe well with vs, but they goe in at one eare and out at an other. This is that wherof S. Paule so greatly glorieth Rom. 8. As many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sonnes of God. For ye haue not receiued the spirit of bondage to feare againe: but ye haue receiued the spirit of adoption, whereby we cry Abba, Father: The same spirit beareth witnes with our spirit, that we are the children of God: if we be children, we are also heires, euen the heires of God, and heires annexed with Christ, if so be that we suffer with him, that ⟨p. 77⟩we may also be glorified with him.
