The Prologue vppon the three Epistles of S. Iohn, by William Tyndall.
IN this first Epistle of Saint John, is contained the doctrine of a very Apostle of Christ, and ought of right to follow his Gospel. For as in his gospel he setteth out the true faith, and teacheth by it only all men to be saved, and restored unto the favour of God again, even so here in this Epistle, he goeth against them, that boast themselves of faith, and yet continue without 1good works, and teacheth many ways, that where true faith is, there the works tarry not behind, and contrary that where the works follow not, there is no true faith, but a false imagination and utter darkness.
