Antichrist shall not only come with lying signs and disguised with falsehood but also with lying miracles and wonders / saith Paul in the said place. ij. Thessa. ij.1 Al the true miracles which are of god / are showed (as I above rehearsed) to move us to here Gods word and to stablish our faith therein and to con firm the trueth of Gods promises / that we might with out all doubting believe them ▪ For Gods word through faith bringeth the spri•te in to our hearts & also life / as Christ saith John. vj. the words which I speak are sprite ⟨p. Cxvj⟩& life. The word also purgeth us & cleanseth us / as Christ saith John. xv. ye are clean by the means of the word. Paul saith .j. Timoth. ij. One God / one mediator (that is to say / advocate / intercessor / or an atonemaker) between God & man the man Christ Jesus which gave him self a ransom for all men Peter saith of Christ Act. iiij. Nether is there health in any other: nether yet also any other name given unto men wherein we must be saved. So now Christ is our peace our redemption or ransom for our since / our righteousness / satisfaction and all the promises of God are ye & Amen in him .ij. Cor. j. And we for the great & infinite love which God hath to us in Christ • love him again love also his laws & love one another / And the deeds which we henceforth do / do we not to make satisfaction or to obtain heaven: but to succour our neighbour to tame the flesh that we may wax perfect & strong men in christ and to be thankful to God again for his mercy / and to glorify his name▪
