Whereupon consequently and on the contrary part he reciteth, who be excluded from the fellowship of the blessed life and of the blessed, compiling a register of sins and of wicked men, such as he hath compiled also about the end of the .9.21. and .22. chapt. And such as the Apostle hath in a manner recited to the Corinthians.
Whereupō consequently and on the contrary parte he reciteth, who be excluded from the felowshippe of the blessed life and of the blessed, compilyng a register of sinnes and of wicked men, such as he hath compiled also about the ende of the .9.21. and .22. chapt. And such as the Apostle hath in a maner recited to the Corinthians.
And we suppose that in S. John his time these sins were most common, nor sufficiently known,1 as appertained. Many also at this day judge more lightly thereof, than true godliness permitteth. And we doubt not but that in this register, which in eight kinds or members is comprised, are contained all other like sins and wickednesses. But we understand that hell fire is assuredly dew unto them for their sins committed, which neither have any faith at all, neither can by any means be persuaded to repent, and turn unto God. For in the first Epistle to the Corinth. the 6. chapt. Ye were, sayeth he, such, but ye are purged by the blood of Christ, and with the spirit of our God. Therefore if we have ben such at any time, let us repent: or in case we be fallen into these sins again, let us rise up, and turn to the Lord, which calleth unto him sinners, and promiseth pardon and grace. But woe be to the uncurable, walking always and without repentance in the way of iniquity.
And we suppose that in S. Iohn his time these sinnes were moste common, nor sufficiently knowen,1 as apperteyned. Many also at this daye iudge more lightly therof, than trewe godlines permitteth. And we doubte not but that in this register, whiche in eight kindes or membres is comprised, are conteined al other like sinnes and wickednesses. But we vnderstande that helle fire is assuredly dewe vnto them for their sinnes committed, whiche nother haue any faith at all, nother can by any meanes be perswaded to repente, and tourne vnto God. For in the firste Epistle to the Corinth. the 6. chapt. Ye were, sayeth he, suche, but ye are purged by the bloud of Christe, and with the sprete of our God. Therefore yf we haue ben suche at any tyme, lette vs repente: or in case we be fallen into these sinnes agayne, lette vs rise vp, and tourne to the Lord, which calleth vnto him sinners, and promiseth pardone and grace. But wo be to the vncurable, walkyng alwayes and without repentaunce in the waye of iniquitie.
