In the .xiiij. Chapter he teacheth to deal so berly with the consciences of the weak in the faith / which yet understand not the liberty of1 Christ perfectly enough and to favour them ⟨p. ccxvii⟩of Christen love / & not to use the liberty of the faith unto hinderance. But unto the furtherance & edifying of the weak. For where such consideration is not / there followeth debate and despising of the Gospel. It is better therefore to forbear the weak a while / until they wax strong / then that the learning of the Gospel should come all to gather underfoot. And such work is singular work of love / & where love is perfect / there must needs be such a respect unto the weak / a thing that Christ commanded and charged to be had above all things.
In the .xiiij. Chapter he teacheth to deale so berly with the consciences of the weke in the fayth / which yet vnderstond not the libertie of1 Christ perfectly ynough and to fauer them ⟨p. ccxvii⟩of Christen loue / & not to vse the liberte of the fayth vnto hinderaūce. But vnto the furderaū ce & edifyinge of the weake. For where suche cō sideracion is not / there foloweth debate and despisinge of the Gospell. It is better therfore to forbere the weke a while / vntyll they waxe strō ge / then that the learninge of the Gospell shuld come all to geder vnderfoote. And suche worke is singular worke of loue / & where loue is perfecte / there muste nedes be suche a respecte vnto the weake / a thinge that Christ cōmaunded and charged to be had aboue all thinges.
