That faith the mother of all good works justifieth us before we ca[n] bring…That fayth the mother of all good workes iustifieth us before we ca[n] bringe…

There is no man that forsaketh house / other father / or mother / other brethren or sisterne / or wife / or children for the kingdom of heavens sake / which shall not receive much more in this world / and in the world to come everlasting life. Luc. xviij.

THere is no man that forsaketh house / other father / or mother / other bretherne or sisterne / or wife / or chylderne for the kingedome of hevens sake / which shall not receave moch moare in this worlde / and in the worlde to come everlastinge lyfe. Luc. xviij.

Here seest thou that a Christen man in all his works hath respect to nothing / but unto y• glory of God only and to the maintaining of the trueth of God / and doeth and leaveth ondone all things of love to the glory and honour of god only / as Christ reacheth in the pater noster. Moare over when he sayeth he shall receive much more in this world / of a trueth ye / he hath received much more all ready. For except he had felt the infinite mercy / goodness / love and kindness of God and the fellowship of the blood of Christ and the comfort of y• spirit of Christ in his heart / he could never have forsaken anything for Gods sake. Notwithstanding (as seeth Mark in the .x. Chapter) Who so ever for Christs sake and the Gospels forsaketh house / brethren or sisters etc. He shall receive an hundred fold houses / brethren etc. that is spiritually. For Christ shall be all things unto thee. The angels / all Christen and who so ever doth the will of the father / shall be father / mother / sister and brother unto the / and all there shall be thine. And god shall take ⟨p. l⟩the care of thee and minister all things unto thee / as long as thou seekest but his honour only. More over if thou were lord over all the world / ye of ten worlds before thou knewest God: yet was not thine appetite quenched / thou thirstedest for more. But if thou seek his honour only / then shall he flake thy thirst and thou shall•e have all that thou desirest / & shall be content: ye if thou dwell among infidels / and among the most cruellest nation of the world / yet shall he be a father unto the and shall defend thee / as he did Abraham / Isaac and Jacob & all saints whose lives thou readest in the scripture. For all that are past & gone before are but ensamples to strength our faith and trust in the word of God. It is the same God and hath sworn to us all that he sware unto them / and is as true as ever he was and therefore can not but fulfil his promises to us as well as he did to them / if we believe as they did.
