CHAP. IIII.
1 Hee bringeth in Christes example, and applieth it 6 to the
mortifying of the flesh, especially commending Charitie: 12
And so intreateth of patience. 17 That it is necessarie that
correction beginne at the Church.
1 Forasmuch note then as Christ hath suffered for vs
in the flesh, arme your selues likewise with the
same minde, which is, that he which hath suffered
in the flesh, hath ceased from sinne,
2 That he hence forward should liue (as much
time as note remaineth in the flesh) not after the lusts
of men, but after the will of God.
3 note noteFor it is sufficient for vs that we haue sp&ebar;t
the time past of þe; life, after the note lust of the Gentiles,
walking in wantonnes, lustes, drunkenes, in
gluttonie, drinkings, & in abominable idolatries.
4 noteWherein it seemeth to them note strange,
that yee runne not with them vnto the same excesse
of riot: therefore speake they euill of you,
5 Which shall giue accounts to him, that is
readie to iudge quicke and dead.
6 noteFor vnto this purpose was the Gospell
God beginneth at his.
preached also vnto the dead, that they might bee
condemned, according to men in the flesh, but
might liue according to God in the spirit.
7 noteNow the ende of all things is at hand. Be
ye therefore sober, and watching in prayer.
8 noteBut aboue all thinges haue feruent loue
among you: note for loue shall couer the multitude
of sinnes.
9 noteBe ye note harberous one to another, without
grudging.
10 note noteLet euery man as hee hath receiued the
gift, minister the same one to another, note as good
disposers of the manifolde grace of God.
11 noteIf any man speake, let him speake as the
wordes of God. If any man minister, let him do it
as of the abilitie which God ministreth, that God
in al things may be glorified through Iesus Christ,
to whome is prayse and dominion for euer, and
euer, Amen.
12 noteDearely beloued, thinke it not note strange
note concerning the firie triall, which is among you
to proue you, as though some strange thing were
come vnto you:
13 noteBut reioyce, in asmuch as ye are partakers
of Christs suffrings, that when his glory shall
appeare, ye may be glad and reioyce.
14 note noteIf yee be railed vpon for the Name of
Christ, blessed are ye: for the note spirit of glory, and
of God resteth vpon you: which on their part is
euill spoken of: but on your part is glorified.
15 noteBut let none of you suffer as a murtherer,
or as a thiefe, or an euil doer, or as a busibodie
in other mens matters.
16 But if any man suffer as a Christian, let him
not bee ashamed: but let him glorifie God in this
behalfe.
17 noteFor the time is come, that iudgement
must beginne at the house of God. noteIf it first beginne
at vs, what shall the ende be of them which
obey not the Gospel of God?
18 noteAnd if the righteous scarcely bee saued,
-- --
Feede Gods flocke.
where shall the vngodly and the sinner appeare?
19 noteWherefore let them that suffer according
to the will of God, commit their soules to
him in well doing, as vnto a faithfull Creator.
