Hereby now seest thou, that there is great difference between being righteous, and good in a mans self, & declaring and uttering righteousness and goodness. The faith only maketh 1a man safe, good, righteous and the friend of GOD, yea and the son and the heir of GOD, and of all his goodness, & possesseth us with the spirit of God. The work declareth the self faith and goodness. Now useth 2the Scripture the common manner of speaking, and the very same that is among the people. As when a father saith to his child, go, & beloving, merciful 3and good, to such, or such a poor man, he biddeth him not, there with to be made merciful, kind and good: but ⟨p. 68⟩to testify and declare the goodness that is in him already, with the outward deed: that it may break out to yt profit of other, and that other may feel it which have need thereof.
