What else therefore should we desire, but that withal speed we may be delivered out of these untollerable grievances and dangers, which is, by the coming of our true Saviour to judgement at the last day? which who so ever1 doth not desire, he can not say the Lords prayer, nor the Articles of our faith with his hart, as he ought. For with what faith can a man say: I believe the resurrection of the flesh, and life everlasting: and ⟨image 32⟩doth not desire it? For if a man believe it, he must needs desire it with his hart, and be glad of it when soever it shall come, otherwise he is no Christian in deed, neither can he justly brag of his faith.
