For whosoeuer hath no nother fealynge of the law of god that it is good / then because of miracles / the same shall beleue in Christe / as did Simon Magus and Iudas: and as they that came out of Egipte with Moses / and fell awaye at euery temptacion / & shall haue good werkes like vn to our popes / bisshopes and cardenales. And therfore when the scripture is fully receaued / there is no nede of miracles. In so moch that they which wyll not beleue Moses and the prophetes when the scripture is receaved / the same wilbe no true beleuers by the reason of miracles / though one arose from deeth to life to preach vn to them by the testimonie of Christe.

Hierom / Augustine / Bede and many other old doctoures that were before the pope was cropt vpp in to the consciences of men and had sent forth his damnable sectes / to preach him vnder the name of christe / as christ prophisied it shuld be / expounde this texte / thou arte Peter and vppon this rocke I wyll byld my church / and this texte / Peter fede my shepe / and all power is geuen me in heuen & in erth / and innumerable soch textes cleane contrary vnto al those new old holy doctours that haue made the pope a god? They knew of no power that man shuld haue in the kyngdome of Christ / then to preach Christ truly. They knew of no power that the pope shuld haue to send to purgatory or to deliuer thence / nether of any pardons ner of any soch confession as they preach & teach / nether were many that are articles with you / articles of their faith. They al preached forgeuenesse of synnes thorow repentaunce towar
