¶ The Prologe vpon the epistle of S. Paul to the Philippians.
Paul pray seth the philippians / and exhorteth t•em to stand fast in the true faith / and to increase in love. And because that false prophets study all ways to impugn and destroy the true faith / he warneth them ⟨p. cclxxxv⟩of such work learners or teachers of works / & pray seth Epaphroditus. And all this doth he in the first and second Chapters.
PAule pray seth the philippians / and exhorteth t•em to stande fast in the true fayth / and to encrease in loue. And because that false prophetes studye all wayes to impunge and destroye the true fayth / he warneth them ⟨p. cclxxxv⟩of soche worke lerners or teachers of workes / & pray seth Epaphroditus. And all this dothe he in the fyrst and second Chapters.
In the third he reproveth faithless & mans righteousness / which false prophets teach and maintain. And he setteth him for an en sample / how that he him self had lived in such false righteousness and holiness unrebukable / that was so that no man could complain on him / & yet now setteth nought thereby / for Christs righteousness sake. And finally affirmeth that such false Prophets are the enemies of the cross / and make their bellies their God. Further then they may safely and without all peril and suffering / will they not preach Christ.
