If he preach & his hart not right, yet ministereth he the office that GOD hath put him in, and they that have the spirit of God hear the voice of God, yea though he speak in an Ass. More over how soever he preacheth he hath not to rejoice, in that he preacheth. 1But and if he preach willingly, with a true hart, and of conscience to God: then hath he his reward, that is, then feeleth he the earnest of eternal life & the working of the spirit of God in him. And as he feeleth Gods goodness and mercy, so be thou sure he feeleth his own infirmity, weakness & unworthiness, and morneth and knowledgeth his sin, in that the hart will not arise to work with that full lust, & love that is in Christ our Lord. And nevertheless is yet at peace with God, through faith and trust in Christ Jesus. For the earnest of the spirit that worketh in him, testifieth and beareth witness unto his hart, that God hath chosen him, and that his grace shall suffice him, which grace is now not idle in him. In his works putteth he no trust.

And as he feeleth Gods goodnes and mercy, so be thou sure he feeleth his owne infirmitie, weakenes & vnworthynes, and morneth and knowledgeth his sinne, in that the hart will not arise to worke with that full lust, & loue that is in Christ our Lord. And neuertheles is yet at peace with God, through faith and trust in Christ Iesu. For the earnest of the spirite that worketh in him, testifieth and beareth witnes vnto his hart, that God hath chosen him, and that his grace shall suffice him, whiche grace is now not idle in hym. In hys woorkes putteth he no trust.
