[Greek or Hebrew]. But if ye mortify: ⟨p. 163⟩As before the Apostle described an infallible token of death; so here he proceedeth to show in like manner a teckmerion or a certain sign of life, and that is the killing and slaying of sin, which is called Mortification. 1For as seed which thou sowest is not quickened before it die: or, this corruptible body glorified before it be for a season dead and buried: So neither is the new man •ramed in us, which according to God is created in righteousness and true holiness, until the old man be wounded and laid for dead in us; which like a giant standeth up to expel and oppose the ⟨p. 164⟩prosters and means of all holiness.
