¶ The .iiij. Chapter.
¶ A true preacher is dilig&ebar;t, he corrupteth not the
worde of God, but seketh the honoure of Christ,
yee though it be wyth the parell of hys lyfe.
A Therfore, seyng that we haue soch
an offyce, euen as God hath had
mercy on vs, we go not out of kynde:
but haue cast from vs the clokes
of vnhonestye, and walke not
in craftynes, nether handle we the worde of
God disceatfully, but open the trueth, ∧ reporte
oure selues to euery mannes conscience
in þe; syght of God &cross2; If oure Gospell be yet
hyd, it is hyd amonge them that are lost, in
whom note the God of this world note hath blynded
the myndes of th&ebar; which beleue not, lest
the lyght of the gospell of the glory of Christ
whych is þe; ymage of God) shulde shyne vnto
them.
B &cross2; For we preache not our selues, but
Christ Iesus to be the Lorde, and oure selues
youre seruauntes, for Iesus sake. For it is
God, that note commaunded the lyght to shyne
out of darcknes, which hath note shyned in oure
hertes, for to geue the lyght of the knowledge
of the glory of God, in the face of Iesus
Christ.
But we haue this treasure in note erthen
vessels, that the excell&ebar;cy of þe; power myght
be Gods, and not oures. We are troubled on
euery syde, yet are we not without shyft.
C We are in pouertie: but not vtterly without
somwhat. We suffre persecucion: but are not
forsaken therin. We are cast downe: neuerthelesse
we perysshe not. We all wayes note
beare aboute in the bodye, the dyinge of the
Lorde Iesus, that the lyfe of Iesu myght also
appeare in oure bodye. &cross3;
noteFor we which lyue, are alwayes delyuered
vnto deeth for Iesus sake, that the lyfe
also of Iesu myght appere in oure mortall
flesshe So then, deeth worketh in vs, but
lyfe in you. &cross3; &cross2; But seynge that we haue
the same sprete of fayth) accordynge as it is
wrytten: note I beleued, and therfore haue I
spoken.) We also beleue, and therfore speake
For we knowe, that he which raysed vp the
Lorde Iesus,
D shall rayse vp vs also by the
meanes of Iesus, ∧ shall sett vs with you.
For all thynges do I for youre sakes note that
the plenteous grace by thanckes geuen of
many, maye redounde to the prayse of God.
Wherfore, we are not weried, But though
oure vtwarde m&abar; peryshe, yet the inwarde
man is renewed daye by daye. noteFor oure
tribulacyon which is mom&ebar;tany and lyght.
prepareth an exced&ibar;ge ∧ an eternall wayght
of glorye vnto vs, while we loke not on the
thynges which are sene, but on the thynges
whych are not sene. For the thynges whych
are sene, are temporall: but thynges whych
are not sene, are eternall. &cross3;
