Mean while we hold this, that they which be already ingrafted into Christ, their minds and wills being now endued with the holy ghost, are so governed and upheld by God for Christs sake: ¹that although they may be weakened many ways and by many temptations, yet they are never suffered wholly and altogether to be beaten down and so to perish.

Meane while wee hold this, that they which be alreadie ingrafted into Christ, their minds and willes being now indued with the holie ghost, are so gouerned and vpheld by God for Christs sake: ¹that although they may be weakned many waies and by manie temptations, yet they are neuer suffred wholly and altogether to be beaten downe and so to perish.
