The Parable of the Wicked Mammon

For if we were of God, no doubt we should have lust in his will. Then preacheth he Christ, the Gospel the promises, and the mercy that God hath set forth to all men in Christs blood. Which they that believe and take for an earnest thing, turn them selves to God, beginning to love God again, and to prepare them selves to his will by the working of the spirit of God in them. Last of all exhorteth ⟨image 46⟩he to unite, peace & soberness, to a void brawlings, sects, opinions, disputing and arguing a bowt words, & to walk in the plain and single faith and feeling of the spirit, and to love one an other after the ensample of Christ, even as Christ loved us and to be thankful, and to walk worthy of the Gospel and as it •e cometh Christ and with the example of pure living to draw all to Christ.

Whyche they that beleue and take for an erueste thing, turne thē selues to God, begininge to loue God agayne, and to prepare thē selues to hys wyll by the working of the spirite of God in thē. Last of all exorteth ⟨image 46⟩he to vnite, peace & sobernes, to a voyde braulinges, sectes, opinions, disputinge and arguinge a bowt wordes, & to walke in the playne and syngle fayth and fealinge of the spirite, and to loue one an other after the ensample of Christe, euen as Christe loued vs and to be thankfull, and to walke worthy of the Gospell and as it •e cometh Christ and wyth the ensāpel of pure liuing to draw al to Christ.

Christ is Lord over all, and every christen is heir annexed with Christ and therefore Lord of all, and every one lord of what soever another hath.

Christ is Lord ouer al, and euery christē is heyre ānered with Christ and therfore Lorde of all, and euery one lord of what soeuer a nother hath.
