Tarry thou on this firm Rock, ⟨p. 71⟩and Isle warrant thee. Say with Paul, What can separate me from the love of God? Can death, can poverty, can sickness, hunger, or any misery, persuade thee now that God loveth thee not? Nay, nothing can separate thee from the love, wherewith God hath loved thee in CHRIST JESUS: whom he loveth, he loveth to the end. So that now where abundance of sin hath bin in thee, the more is the abundance of grace. But to what end? Certainly, that as sin hath reigned to death, as thou seest, to the killing of Gods Son: so now Grace must reign to Life, to the honouring of Gods Son, who is now alive, and cannot dye any more.
Tarry thou on this firme Rocke, ⟨p. 71⟩and Ile warrant thee. Say with Paul, What can separate me from the loue of God? Can death, can pouertie, can sicknesse, hunger, or any misery, perswade thee now that God loueth thee not? Nay, nothing can separate thee from the loue, wherwith God hath loued thee in CHRIST IESVS: whom he loueth, he loueth to the end. So that now where abundance of sin hath bin in thee, the more is the aboundance of grace. But to what end? Certainly, that as sinne hath reigned to death, as thou seest, to the killing of Gods Son: so now Grace must reigne to Life, to the honouring of Gods Son, who is now aliue, and cannot dye any more.
