They all with one voice singe merely, that salvation & power is now made perfect, for by the Lords death and resurrection,1 God hath wrought power, and made perfect the salvation promised to the fathers, to wit whilst he trod down the serpents head, abolished sin & death, and restored life. Thus is the kingdom of God in this world established in the elect, whilst even by the power of Christ the Prince of this world is caste out and overcome. For the cause followeth, wherefore we must so rejoice, and what virtue and power of Christ hath showed it self, or how salvation is made perfect: because, sayeth he, through Christ, the Devil is cast down, that is to say overcome and vanquished, that he can no more accuse mankind before the judgement seat of God. Hereunto belongeth that S. Paul wrote.2 Who shall accuse the elect of God? It is God that justifieth, who is he that condemneth? It is Christ, which died, yea which rose again, which is also on the right hand of God which maketh intercession for us.
Thei al with one voice singe merely, that saluatiō & power is now made perfit, for by the Lordes death and resurrectiō,1 God hath wrought power, and made perfit the saluatiō promised to the fathers, to witte whilest he trode downe the serpentes head, abolisshed sinne & death, and restored life. Thus is the kingedome of God in this worlde establisshed in the electe, whilest euen by the power of Christ the Prince of this worlde is caste out and ouercome. For the cause followeth, wherfore we must so reioyce, and what vertue and power of Christ hath shewed it selfe, or howe saluation is made perfit: because, sayeth he, through Christ, the Deuill is cast downe, that is to saye ouercome and vāquisshed, that he can no more accuse mankinde before the iudgement seate of God. Hereunto belongeth that S. Paule wrote.2 Who shall accuse the electe of God? It is God that iustifieth, who is he that condemneth? It is Christ, whiche died, yea whiche rose agayne, which is also on the right hande of God which maketh intercession for vs.
