And because of a further declaration, leest we should not know the true odours, which please God, and which the faithful offer unto God through Christ:1 ones or twice he addeth, that those odours be the prayers of Saints. And he meaneth by Saints, not those that dwell in heaven, but us in the earth, which are sanctified with the spirit of our God, with the blood of Christ, baptism, faith and word. John .13.2 And the prayers be invocations, and giving of thanks. And he sayeth expressly of all Saints, leest any should fear that he and his prayers offered by Christ were excluded. If thou believe, thou art holy, and thy prayer is of God accepted. What the prayers of Saints be, it appeareth in the Lords prayer, which we offer up to the father in the name & words of Christ: hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, and the residue, which all fight with those sects and corruptions of true doctrine.
