and his worde is not in vs. And Paul
.Roma. vij. saith / that good which I wold / that do
I not / but that evell which I wold not / that do I. So it is
not I that doo it (saith he)
but synne that dwelleth in me. Thus are we synners
and no synners.
No synners / if thou loke vn to the profession of
oure hertes towarde the law of God / on oure repentaunce and
sorow that we haue / both
because we haue synned and also because we be yet
full of synne still / and vn to the promises of mercie in oure
sauioure christe / and
vn to oure fayth. Synners are we / iff thou loke vn
to the frailtie of oure flesh / which is as the weakenesse of
one that is newly recouered out of a greate disease / by the
reason wherof oure dedes are imperfett. And by the reason where
of al so / when occasions be greate / we fall in to horrible
dedes / and the frute of the synne which remayneth in oure
membirs breaketh out. Notwithstondynge yet the spirite leaveth
vs not / but rebuketh vs and bringeth vs home agayne vn to oure
profession / so that we never cast off the yocke of God from
oure neckes nether yeld vpp oure selues vn to synne / for to
serue it / but fighte afresh and begynne a new batayle.
