A COMPARISON BETUIX FAITH AND INDREDULITIE. Faith is the root of all good:-- Makith God and man freindis. Bringith God and man to gither. Incredulitie is the root of all evill:-- Makith thame deidlie foes. Bringith thame syndrie. All that proceidis frome Faith pleaseth God. All that proceidith from Incredulitie displeaseth God. Faith only maketh a man good and rychteouse. Incredulitie maketh him injust and evill. Faith only maketh a man, The member of Christ; The inheritour of heavin; The servand of God. Faith schewith God to be a sweit Father. Fayth hauldith styff be the Word of God: Countith God to be trew. Faith knowith God: Lovith God and his nychtboure. Faith only savith: Extolleth God and his werkis. Incredulitie maketh him, The member of the devill; The inheritour of hell; The servand of the devill. Incredulitie maketh God a terrible Judge: It causeth man wandir heir and thair: Maketh him fals and a liear. Incredulitie knoweth him nott. Incredulitie lovith nether God nor nychtbour: Onlie condemneth: Extolleth flesche and hir awin deidis. OFF HOPE. Hope is a trustie looking for of thingis that ar promesed to come unto us: as we hope the everlasting joy which Christ hath promesed unto all that beleve on him. We should putt our hoipe and trust in God onlie, and no other thing. "It is good to trust in God, and nott in man." "He that trustith in his awin harte, he is a fuill." "It is good to trust in God, and not in princes." (Psal. 117.)--"Thei shal be lyik unto images that mack thame, and all that trust in thame." He that trusteth in his awin thoughts doeth ungodlie. "Curssed be he that trustith in man." "Bidd the rich men of this warld, that thei trust nott in thair unstable riches, but that thei trust in the leving God." "It is hard for them that trust in money to enter in the kingdome of God." Moirovir, we should trust in him onelie, that may help us [God onlie can help us.]--Ergo, we should trust in him onelie. Weill is thame that trust in God: and wo to thame that trust him nott. "Weill is the man that trustis in God; for God shalbe his trust." He that trusteth in him shall understand the trewth. "Thei shall all rejoyse that trust in thee: thei shall all evir be glaid; and thow wilt defend thame." OFF CHARITIE. Charitie is the love of thy nychtboure. The rewll of charitie is to doo as thow woldest wer done unto thee: for charitie esteameth all alyke;[66] the riche and the poore; the friend and the foe; the thankfull and the unthankfull; the kynnesman and stranger. A COMPARISON BETUIX FAITH, HOPE, AND CHARITIE. Faith commeth of the wourd of God: Hope commeth of faith; and Charitie springis of thame boith.
