Note also, how GOD sendeth his promise to the people, and Moses con firmeth it with miracles, and the people 1believe. But when temptation cometh, they fall into unbelief, and few bide standing. When thou seest that all be not Christen that will be so called, and that the cross trieth the true from the feigned: for if the cross were not, Christ should have Disciples enough. 2Whereof also thou seest, what an excellent gift of God true faith is, and impossible to be had, without the spirit of God. For it is above all natural power, that a man in time of temptation, when GOD scourgeth him, should believe then steadfastly, how that God loveth him, and careth for him, 3and hath prepared all good things for him, and that, that scourging is an earnest that GOD hath elect and chosen him.
