1Look to your selves, that we lose not. He commandeth that they take heed of deceivers: least by any means they might be removed from the way of trueth. When he addeth: That we lose not the things which we have done: He draweth his argument from the damage or loss which they should sustain.2 As if he should say: Let every man take heed to him self,3 least if he leave that he hath well begun, he lose all the profit of those things which hitherto he hath done well, or which he hath suffered for Christs sake and the trueth.4 But these sayings seem to be brought out of those words which are read in the Prophet.
