Therefore let us remember,1 how the Scripture not here only, but every where doeth teach, that Jesus Christ the Son of God, and in deed of the same substance with us after his humanity, in dying for us, to have deserved to have a name given him, which is above all names, and that allthings should be subject to his government, what so ever be in the world visible or invisible. For so S. John testifieth in the .1. Chapter. And S. Paul also to the philip. 2. Coloss. 1. and to the Hebrews the .1. Chapter. He is said at this present to have overcome or obtained to open the book, and loose the Seals thereof. Therefore by the knowledge of him, and through faith in him, we obtain, that with a joyful mind we may look upon the book, the judgements and all the ⟨p. 162⟩works of God, and quietly and patiently to bear the opening thereof, and government of all together. &c.
Therefore let vs remembre,1 howe the Scripture not here only, but euery where doeth teache, that Iesus Christe the Sonne of God, and in dede of the same substaunce with vs after his humanitie, in diyng for vs, to haue deserued to haue a name geuen him, whiche is aboue all names, and that althinges shoulde be subiecte to his gouernment, what so euer be in the worlde visible or inuisible. For so S. Iohn testifieth in the .1. Chapter. And S. Paul also to the philipp. 2. Coloss. 1. and to the Hebrewes the .1. Chapter. He is sayed at this present to haue ouercomen or obteyned to open the boke, and lowse the Seales therof. Therfore by the knoweledge of him, and through faith in him, we obteyne, that with a ioyefull minde we maye loke vpon the boke, the iudgementes and all the ⟨p. 162⟩workes of God, and quietly and patiently to beare the openyng therof, and gouernment of al together. &c.
