A SERMON OF D. MARTIN LVTHER, WHEREIN IS ENTREATED OF THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN.
2. Cor. 6. Verse 1. SO we therefore as works together beseech you, that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2. For he saith: I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold now the accepted time, behold now the day of salvation. 3. Let us give no occasion of offence in any thing, that our ministry be not reprehended. 4. But in all things let us behave our selves as the Ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses. ⟨p. 326⟩5. In stripes, in prisons, in tumults, in labours. 6. In watchings, in fastings, in purity, in knowledge, in long suffering, in kindness, in the holy spirit, in love unfeigned. 7. In the word of truth, in the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left. 8. By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report, as deceivers, and yet true: 9. As unknown, and yet known: as dying, and behold, we live: as chastened, & yet not killed. 10. As sorrowing, & yet alway rejoicing: as poor, and yet make many rich: as having nothing, & yet possessing all things.
