HE therefore came adown on earth for to draw us up to heaven. He hath borne the pain dew to our2 sins, clearly to discharge us even from the beginning of his conception unto his resurrection: cHe hath fulfilled perfectly all righteousness, for to cover our unrighteousness, he hath declared dto us all the will of God his father both by works and also by words, to the end to show us the true way of salvation. In fine, for […] whole & full satisfaction ⟨image 34⟩for our sins which he toke upon him: he was bound eto unbind us: condemned, for to deliver us: he suffered great and infinite shame, for to deliver us from all confusion: he was nailed fon the cross for to fasten thereon our sins, he died gand sustained the curse and malediction which was dew to us for to appease the wrath of god for ever by his only oblations made, he was buried hto approve & verify his death and to vanquish death even to the house thereof, that is to say, even to the grave wherein he felt no corruption, for to declare that even in dying he had overcome & vanquished death. He was raised again in itriumph as a conqueror to the end that all our corruption being dead & buried we should be renewed into a new spiritual & everlasting life, & that thereby the first death should be no more to us a punishment dew for sin, & as it were an entrance into the second death, but contrariwise a finishing and end of y• death of our corruption, ⟨p. 02⟩and an entrance into eternal10 life. Finally he being raised afterward was conversant here on earth by the space of forty days to confirm and approve his resurrection. He ascended visible & verily into heaven, where he is set on the right hand of god his father and hath taken possession m of his eternal11 kingdom for us and for our behove for whose sake also he is the only mediator n and advocate o governing his12 church by his holy spirit until the non ber of the elected of god his father be accomplished and fulfilled.
