And hereby ye se that it is a playne and
an evident conclusion as bright as the sonne shyninge that the
trueth of gods worde dependeth not of the trueth of the
congregacion. And therfore when
thou art asked / whi thou beleuest that thou shalt
be saved thorow
christ and of soch like principles of oure faith /
answere thou wottest and felest that it is true. And when he
asketh how thou knowest that it is true / answere because it is
written in thine herte. And if he aske who wrott it / answere
the sprite of God. And if he aske how thou
camest first by it / tel him / whether by readynge
in bokes or hearynge it preached / as by an outward instrument
/ but that inwardly thou wast taught by the spirite of God. And
if he aske whether thou beleuest it not because it is written
in bokes or because the prestes so preach / answere no / not
now / but only because it is written in
thine hert and because the spirite of god so
preacheth and so testifieth vn to thi soule. And saye / though
at the begynnynge thou wast moued by readynge or preachynge /
as the Samaritanes were by the
wordes of the woman / yet now thou beleuest it not
therfore any lenger / but only because thou hast herde it of the spirite of
God and red it written in thyne herte.

And concerninge outwarde teachynge we allege for vs scripture elder then any church that was this .xiiij. hundred yeres / and
old autenticke stories which they had brought a slepe where with
we confounde their lies. Remembir ye not how in oure awne tyme /
of all that taught grammer in England not one vnderstode the

by
them / though we lerned certay
