Look from Adam, and behold the Protestants faith and religion evidently proved out of the holy Scriptures against all atheists, papists, loose libertines, and carnal gospellers: and that the faith which they profess, hath continued from the beginning of the world, and so is the true and ancient faith. Herein hast thou also a short sum of the whole Bible, and a plain manifestation, that all holy men who have pleased God, have been saved through this Christian faith alone.Looke from Adam, and behold the Protestants faith and religion evidently proued out of the holy Scriptures against all atheists, papists, loose libertines, and carnall gospellers: and that the faith which they professe, hath continued from the beginning of the world, and so is the true and ancient faith.

1As touching this, Paul said when he wrote to the Romans in the 8. Chapter; God sent his Son in the similitude of sinful flesh, and through sin, (that is to say, through the sin-offering and willing death of Christ) he condemned sin in the flesh. And in the first Epistle to the Corinthians, the first Chapter,2 the same Paul saith, Christ Jesus is appointed of God to be our wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: that as it is written, ⟨p. 13⟩who so glorieth and rejoiceth, let him glory and rejoice in the Lord.
1As touching this, Paul said when hee wrote to the Romans in the 8. Chapter; God sent his Sonne in the similitude of sinfull flesh, and through sinne, (that is to say, through the sinne-offering and willing death of Christ) he condemned sin in the flesh. And in the first Epistle to the Corinthians, the first Chapter,2 the same Paul saith, Christ Iesus is appointed of God to be our wisdome, and righteousnesse, and sanctification, and redemption: that as it is written, ⟨p. 13⟩who so glorieth and rejoyceth, let him glorie and rejoyce in the Lord.
But for as much as this is the first promise, and the first sure Evangelion, I will now speak of every word in especial. First, God calleth his Son our Lord Jesus, the seed of the woman. A seed, because of the very nature of man, and because that our Lord should not take upon him a fantastical, but a very true body.
