Theophilus. Sith that they despise and contemn the 1Gospel, and that by the same they will not be made new creatures, forsaking their old Adam, & the concupiscence of their flesh, it is good reason, that they have such Smiths and melters for to make them new again. And sith that men do make no punishment. God through his just judgement will make them to feel that fire, for to quench the fire of concupiscence which burneth in their heart and veins, if they can consider it, which is for their profit, and to draw them from their whoredom.
