But on this wise goeth it with heaven with everlasting life and eternal reward, likewise as good works naturally follow faith (as it is above rehearsed) 1so that thou needest not to command a true believer to work, or to compel him with any law, for it is unpossible that he should not work, he tarrieth but for an occasion, he is ever disposed of him self, thou needest but to put him in remembrance, and that to know the false faith from the true. Even so naturally doth eternal life follow ⟨p. 70⟩faith and good living, without seeking for, & is impossible that it should not come, though no man thought there on. Yet is it rehearsed in y• Scripture, alleged and promised to know the difference between a false believer, and a true believer, and that every man may know what followeth good living naturally, and of it self, without taking thought for it.
