But where shall this pillar be set? where shall the glory of Saints be famous?1 not in Court, or market place: but in the Temple of my God. And the Temple of God, is heaven it self, and in our world the holy Church. Glorious therefore shall he be in the church of Saints, aswell militant, as triumphant. Albeit therefore that the very godly hear evil in this world: yet this world shall perish, Christ shall reign for ever, and the Saints shall reign with him. Their glory then shall remain for ever and ever. And where he sayeth, of my God, Aretas expoundeth and sayeth: This saying of my God, taketh not away the divine ⟨p. 121⟩nature, that is seen in Christ, but establisheth, as I may say, the consubstantiality. For it declareth the union of two natures, which are in the person of our Lord Jesus, to wit of his deity and humanity, even after understanding, yet not confusedly, to be indissoluble. For they answer mutually one another, because of the assumption of the humane nature, the divine to the humane, and likewise the humane to the divine proprieties. &c.
But where shall this piller be set? where shall the glory of Sainctes be famouse?1 not in Courte, or market place: but in the Temple of my God. And the Temple of God, is heauen it selfe, and in our worlde the holy Churche. Gloriouse therfore shal he be in the churche of Sainctes, aswel militaunt, as triumphaunt. Albeit therfore that the very godly heare euill in this worlde: yet this worlde shall peryshe, Christe shall reigne for euer, and the Sainctes shall reigne with him. Their glorye then shall remayne for euer and euer. And where he sayeth, of my God, Aretas expoundeth and saieth: This saiynge of my God, taketh not awaye the diuine ⟨p. 121⟩nature, that is sene in Christ, but establisheth, as I may say, the consubstantialitie. For it declareth the vnion of two natures, whiche are in the persone of our Lord Iesu, to witte of his deitie and humanitie, euen after vnderstanding, yet not confusely, to be indissobible. For they aunswer mutualy one another, because of the assumptiō of the humane nature, the diuine to the humane, and likewise the humane to the diuine proprieties. &c.
