1Hereby are confuted two opinions, right hurtful to the whole world. The first weneth, that the Papists be saved for their simplicity, and severe discipline. For because, say they, they know no better things: and the works that they do, they do them of a good intent, therefore are they saved by the same. That is most vain and most ungodly. They add, unless we should judge thus, doubtless there should not one of the Papists be saved. Certainly I say plainly, that no man is saved by papistry, no more than by Mahometrie. For it is called the way of perdition even of S. Peter him self.2 Howbeit I think not therefore, that no man of the nun bre of Papists is saved. But I believe that innumerable, as I said before, have at the length seen the filthiness of papistry through the illumination of God: and the papistry forsaken, to have embraced the sincere Gospel, and so by Christ alone to be saved.
1Hereby are confuted two opiniōs, right hurtefull to the whole worlde. The first weneth, that the Papistes be saued for their simplicitie, and seuere discipline. For bycause, saye they, they know no better things: and the workes that they doe, they doe them of a good intente, therfore are they saued by the same. That is moste vayne and moste vngodly. They adde, vnlesse we shuld iudge thus, doubtles there should not one of the Papistes be saued. Certenly I saye playnely, that no man is saued by papistrie, no more thā by Mahometrie. For it is called the waye of perdition euen of S. Peter him selfe.2 Howebeit I thinke not therfore, that no man of the nū bre of Papistes is saued. But I beleue that innumerable, as I sayed before, haue at the lēgth sene the filthines of papistrie through the illumination of God: and the papistry forsakē, to haue imbraced the sincere Gospell, and so by Christ alone to be saued.
