Sin in the scripture is not called that outward1 work only committed by the body / but all the whole busyness & what soever accompanieth / moveth or stirreth unto the outward deed / & that whence the works spring: as unbelief / proneness & readiness unto the deed in the ground of the heart / with all the powers / affections & appetites where with we can but sin.

The scripture loketh singularly vnto the hert / & vnto the role & originall fountayne of all synne / which is vnbelefe in the botome of the herte. For as faith only iustifieth & bringeth
