1Now doeth S. John describe also what manner ones the sheep of Christ shall be, which shall continue in the church of Christ, despising the furies of the beasts. Unto whom also the mark of his fathers name in their foreheads is expounded.2 We shall perceive moreover, what be the true marks of the faithful. First they are redeemed from the earth. Doubtless all we bearing the earthly Image of the earthly man, were sold under sin, for the which cause we are also subject to ⟨p. 443⟩malediction. But the lord hath bought us with the price of redemption, payed upon the cross, so that now we are shapen new after the Image of the heavenly man, to with being adopted for the children of God. Of the which redemption the Apostle hath spoken in the .1. Corinth. the .7. and to the Roma. the .3. & in other places. S. Peter also .1. Pet. 1. And forasmuch as the faithful know themselves to be bought and adopted by Christ to the heavenly inheritance, they are addict to serve their redeemer only, and inseparably cleave to him.
