But God which is riche in mercy thorow his greate loue wherwith he loued vs

But now ye that be in Christ Iesu, and afore tyme were farre of, are now made nye by the bloude of Christ.

Now therfore ye are nomore gestes and straungers, but citesins with the sayntes, & of the housholde of God,

That he wente, vp what is it, but that he first came downe in to ye lowest partes of ye earth?

But let vs folowe the trueth in loue, and in all thinges growe in him, which is the heade, euen Christ,

But ye haue not so learned Christ,

but be ye renued in the sprete of youre mynde,

Be angrie, but synne not. Let not ye Sonne go downe vpo youre wrath:

He that hath stollen, let him steale nomore: but let him laboure rather, and do some good with his hondes, that he maye haue to geue vnto him that nedeth.

Let no filthy communicacion proceade out of youre mouth, but that which is good to edifye withall, wha nede is, that it be gracious to heare.

But be ye curteous one to another, mercifull, and forgeue one another, eue as God hath forgeuen you in Christ.

nether fylthines, ner folish talkynge, ner ieastynge (which are not comly) but rather geuynge of thakes.

For sometyme ye were darknesse, but now are ye lighte in the LORDE. Walke as the children of lighte.

and haue no fellishippe with ye vnfrutefull workes of darknes, but rather rebuke the.

But all thinges are manifest, whan they are rebuked of the lighte. For what so euer is manifest, that same is lighte.

Take hede therfore how ye walke circumspectly, not as the vnwyse, but as ye wyse,

Wherfore be not ye vnwyse, but vnderstonde what the wil of the LORDE is,

and be not dronken with wyne, wherin is excesse: but be full of the sprete

to make it vnto himselfe a glorious congregacion, hauynge no spot ner wrynkle, ner eny soch thinge, but that it shulde be holy and without blame.

For no ma euer yet hated his awne flesshe, but norisheth and cherissheth it, euen as the LORDE doth also the congregacion.
