☜Probations out of the holy Scriptures.
know ye not,1 that all we which are baptised into Jesus Christ, are baptised to die with him? We are buried then with him by baptism, for to dye, that likewise as Christ was raised from death by the glory of the father, even so we also should walk in a new life. For if we be graft in death like unto him: even so shall we partakers of the resurrection, knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him also, that the body of sin might utterly be destroyed, that hence forth we should not be servants unto sin. For he that is dead, is justified from sin. Wherefore, if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.
know ye not,1 that all we which are baptised into Iesus Christ, are baptised to die with hym? We are buried then with him by baptisme, for to dye, that likewise as Christ was raised from death by the glory of the father, euen so we also should walke in a new life. For if we bee graft in death like vnto hym: euen so shall we partakers of the resurrection, knowing this, that our old mā is crucified with hym also, that the body of sinne might vtterly bee destroyed, yt hence forth we should not be seruauntes vnto sinne. For hee that is dead, is iustified from sinne. Wherefore, if we bee dead with Christ, we beleue that we shall also liue with him.
