Then let the Priests preach first the law truly and teach the people to see their sins, and so bring them to repentance: ⟨p. 228⟩And secondarily the faith of Christ and the forgiveness of sin through faith: And thirdly alms, prayer, & fasting, which are the whole life of a Christen man, & without which there is no Christen man a live. And let them preach the true use of their alms, 1which is to help thy neighbour with counsel, with body and goods and all that is in thy power: and the true use of prayer which is to bring 2his necessity and thine own before God with a strong faith in his promises: and the true use of fasting, which 3is to tame yt flesh unto y• spirit, that the soul may attend to the word of God and pray through faith.
