And Paul writeth. Ro. i. that the heathen because when they knew god / they had no lust to honour him with godly living / therefore god poured his wrath upon them & toke his spirit from them & gave them up unto their hearts lusts to serve sin / from iniquity to iniquity till they were through hardened and past repentance.

Ro. i. that the hethē because when they knew god / they had no lust to honoure him with godly lyvinge / therfore god powred his wrath vpon them & toke his spirite frō thē & gave them vp vnto their hertes lustes to serve sinne / frō iniquite to imquitie tyll they were thorow herdened and past repentaunce.
And Pharaoh / because when the word of god was in his country and gods people scattered through out all his land / and yet nether loved them or it: therefore god gave him up / and in taking his spirit of grace from him so hardened his heart with covetousness / that afterward no miracle could convert him.

Here to pertaineth the parable of the talents. Mat. xxv. The Lord commandeth the talent to be taken away from the evil & slothful ⟨image 5⟩servant & to bind him hand & foot & to cast him into utter darkness / & to give the talent unto him that had ten / saying: to all that have / more shall be given. But from him that hath not / that he hath shall be taken from him. That is to say / he that hath a good heart toward the word of God / & a set purpose to fashion his deeds thereafter & to garnish it with Godly living & to testify it to other / the same shall increase more & more daily in the grace of Christ. But he that loveth it not / to live thereafter & to edify other / the same shall loose the grace of true knowledge & be blinded again and every day ware worse and worse and blinder & blinder / till he be an utter enemy of the word of God / & his heart so hardened / that it shall be impossible to convert him.
