4 This gift (as also all others) which it bestoweth upon us, doth the holy Ghost wholly draw from Christ, in whom the Scripture giveth us specially to consider in his death, burial and resurrection, the subduing of that original corruption of ours, which was imputed unto him: ⟨p. 55⟩whence it cometh to pass, that we divide our whole sanctification into these three members; mortification, burial of the old man, and the rising again of the new.
4 This guift (as also all others) which it bestoweth vpon vs, dooth the holie Ghost whollie drawe from Christ, in whome the Scripture giueth vs speciallie to consider in his death, buriall and resurrection, the subduing of that originall corruption of ours, which was imputed vnto him: ⟨p. 55⟩whence it commeth to passe, that wee deuide our whole sanctification into these three members; mortification, buriall of the old man, and the rising againe of the new.
5 The mortification of the old man, we call the effect of that spiritual and most powerful application of the death of Christ, whereby our corruption, receiveth a deaths wound; so that it is no more so powerful, to stir up in our minds, wicked motions, & such as are contrary unto Gods will.
5 The mortification of the olde man, wee call the effect of that spirituall and most powerfull application of the death of Christ, wherby our corruption, receaueth a deaths wound; so that it is no more so powerful, to stirre vp in our minds, wicked motions, & such as are contrary vnto Gods will.
