A double summons the one, to unfeigned repentance. The other, to the worthy receiving…A double summons the one, to vnfained repentance. The other, to the worthie receiuing…

That we having nothing, might have all things; God having all things, would have nothing. That we being vassals, and slaves to all, even to Satan the Fiend, might be Lords of all, and of Satan: the Lord of all would become a vassal, and a slave to us all, and in danger of Satan. Oh love incomprehensible. Who can otherwise think now, but if the gracious good Lord disdained not to give his own Son, his own hearts joy for us his very enemies, before we thought to beg any such thing at his hands; yea, before we were? who, I say, can think otherwise, but that with him, he will give us all good things? If when we hated him, and fled away from him, he sent his Son to seek us: who can think otherwise, then that now we loving him, and lamenting, because we love him no more, but that he will forever love us? He that giveth the more to his enemies, will not he give the less to his friends? God hath given his own Son, then which nothing is greater; ⟨p. 69⟩even to us his enemies: and we now being become his friends, will ne deny us faith and pardon of our sins? which though they be great, yet in comparison they are nothing at all. Christ Jesus would give his own self for us, when we willed if not: and will he now deny us faith, if we will it? This will is his earnest, that he hath given us truly to look indeed, for the thing willed. And look thou for it in deed: for as he hath given thee to will, so will he give thee to do.

That wée hauing nothing, might haue al things; God hauing al things, would haue nothing. That we being vassailes, and slaues to all, euen to Sathan the Fiend, might be Lords of all, and of Sathan: the Lord of all would become a vassaile, and a slaue to vs all, and in danger of Sathan. Oh loue incomprehensible. Who can otherwise thinke now, but if the gracious good Lord disdained not to giue his owne Sonne, his owne hearts ioy for vs his very enemies, before wée thought to begge any such thing at his hands; yea, before we were? who, I say, can thinke otherwise, but that with him, hee will giue vs all good things? If when we hated him, and fled away from him, hee sent his Son to séek vs: who can thinke otherwise, then that now we louing him, and lamenting, because wee loue him no more, but that he wil foreuer loue vs? Hee that giueth the more to his enemies, will not he giue the lesse to his friends? God hath giuen his owne Sonne, then which nothing is greater; ⟨p. 69⟩
