- 1The general covenant that God hath made with us.The generall couenaunt that God hath made with vs.
All the whole law, which was given 1to utter our corrupt nature, is comprehended in the ten commandments. 2And the ten commandments are comprehended in these two: love God, and thy neighbour. And he that loveth his neighbour in GOD, and Christ, fulfilleth these two, and consequently the ten, and finally all the other. Now if we love our neighbours in God and Christ, that is to wit, if we be loving, kind and merciful to them, because God hath created them unto his likeness, and Christ hath redeemed them, and bought them with his blood: then may we be bold to trust in God through Christ and his deserving, for all mercy. For God hath promised and bound him self to us, to show us all mercy, and to be a father almighty to us, so that we shall not need to fear the power of all our adversaries.
