In the .xij. Chapter he giveth exhortations.1 For this manner observeth Paul in all his pistles / first he teacheth Christ and the faith / then exhorteth he to good works / and unto continual mortifying of the flesh. So here teacheth he good works in dead / and the true serving of God / and maketh all men Priests / to offer up not money and beasts / as the manner was in the time of the law / but their own bodies / with killing and mortifying of the lusts of the flesh. After that he describeth the outward conversation of Christen men / how they ought to behave them selves in spiritual things how to teach / preach & rule in the congregation of Christ / to serve one another to ⟨image 237⟩suffer all things patiently / and to commit the wreak and vengeance to God / in conclusion how a Christen man ought to behave him self unto all men / to friend / foe or whatsoever he be. These are the right works of a Christen man which spring out of faith. For faith keepeth not holy day nether suffereth any man to be idle / wheresoever she dwelleth.
