Now that which the wicked alone do, there is no doubt but that is in the number of their sins, for which they suffer punishment. Wherefore the overthrows of the enemies of the Church are no obscure testimony of the wrath of God against them, even as God himself saith of Pharaoh, To the same purpose have I stirred thee up, that I might show my power in thee, 1and that my Name might be declared throughout all the earth.

1The testimony and constancy of Martyrs, who sealing this doctrine with their blood do show in the very midst of most exquisite torments, that they do so think indeed, as they taught, and are firmly persuaded in their hearts of the truth of that doctrine which they have professed; and that they draw that comfort out of it which they did preach unto others: to wit, that for Christs sake they are truly the sons of God, and that God careth for them in the hour and point of death. God therefore sustaining them by this lively comfort, thereby witnesseth, that he affecteth the doctrine of the Church, for which they suffer.
