in the day of his redempcyō whiche he semeth to haue so that suche a mā is lyke a wyne vessell which rūneth oute by reason of a leake wherthrough the wyne is loste whiche thynge they that knowe not where they see the vessell thyncke that it is full but when any wyne shoulde be drawē out of it then appeareth it vnto all men that it is emptie In lyke maner also such a man when an accompte shal be asked of him at the daye of iudgement he shal be found emptie and then his workes shal be open vnto all men Of this sort are they also which shal saye vnto the kynge at that day Lord haue we not prophecied Mat. vii in thi name haue we not done many good dedes And when the kynge answereth he shall saye vnto theym Verely I say vnto you I know you not Thou seest brother that suche a one hath nothyng at al. Be thou therfore myndfull of the worde and directe thy way Take hede that thou doest not suffer the birdes to lyght downe to eate vp the seede of the sonne of God Luke viii For he sayd that the seede is the word whiche ye do heare Hyde therefore the seede in the furrowes of thy hert that is to say hyde the word in the myddest of thy herte that thou mayest brynge forthe vnto God some frute in feare But when thou readest reade diligētly and earnestly and handle the sentence weying it aduisedly labour not to reade ouer many leaues but if thou chaunce vpon any harde thynge let it not greue the to read ouer that verse twis or thrise tyll thou vnderstande the meanynge and pyth of it But when thou preparest thy selfe to sytte downe to reade or elles to heare an other pray vnto God fyrst saying Lord Iesu Christ open mine eyes and the eares of my hearte that they may heare thy wordes and vnderstande them A prayer and that they maye do thy wyll O Lord. Psal 119. For I am a straunger in the earth hyde not thy commaūdementes from me But open myne eyes I shall beholde the maruayles of thy law For in thee o my God haue I trusted that thou maiest gyue lyght vnto my herte Yea my brother I besech the praye so alwayes vnto god that he wyl gyue lyght vnto thy mīd and that he wyl make opē vnto the the strength of his wordes For manye haue erred trustynge to their owne wytte and sayinge that they were wyse Roma i. they became fooles and dyd not vnderstande the thynges that were written and so fallyng into blasphemies did perishe If thou therfore in thy readyng fynde anye thynge that is hard to be vnderstanded take heed that the wicked enemie do not teache the to saye within thyne owne selfe it is not so as that worde speaketh For howe shoulde it be so and on such like sorte But if thou beleue god beleue his wordes also say vnto the Deuyll Go behynde me aduersarie Mat. xvi for I knowe thee not The wordes of the Lorde are pure wordes Psal xii as the siluer whiche from the erthe is tried purified seuen times in the fire There is no euel thynge in them nor doubtful but all thynges in them cōtayned are good in their sight that are wyse and al thinges in them are perfecte to them that find knowledge But I am a fole am ignorāt yet I know that they are writtē spiritually For the Apostle sayeth that the lawe is spirituall And so loke thou vp in to Heauen and saye Lorde I haue beleued thy wordes and saye not agaynst them A prayer but I trust vnto the wordes of thy holy ghost Therfore saue me thou O Lorde that I may fynd fauour before thee For I seake no other thynge but onelye that I maye be saued O mercyfull that I maye obtayne thy grace for thyne is the kyngdome mercye for euer So be it ¶ An Homelye of the Resurrection of Christe and of the power and frute therof written in Latyn by Iohn Brentius and translated into Englyshe by T.S. NOwe that I shal speake of the Resurrection of our Lord Iesu Christ I desyre you that you all wyl herken with suche eares and myndes not as vayne men are wont to gyue to ydle now and then also to hurtefull tales whiche do onely seake this that they maye be delyghted waste the tyme but with suche eares and myndes as very godly men do gyue to hym that entreateth of the most highe and chiefe matier of holy relygion and of oure perpetual saluaciō For if Christ had not rysen agayne our preachynge hadde been in vayne as Paule sayeth oure faythe were in vayne the testimonye of the Apostles of the resurrection of Christe were in vayne the dead shulde not ryse agayne we shuld yet remayne in our synnes all they which are fallen a sleape in Christ were loste finally yf that in this lyfe only we had faith in Christ we were thē the most miserable of all men Wherfore most dere frendes if euer we dyd care as there ought to be none other so greate a care to knowe the thynges that Christ dyd the cause of our saluacion dost most aboue all thynges enforce vs that we well do vnderstande the rysyng agayne of Christ from the dead We shall first therfore shew that Christe verely is risen from the dead then what profyte what glorye what maiestye the resurrection did bringe to Christ him selfe Lastly what profyte what health yea and what happines hath happened vs euen vnto vs I saye by the resurrection of Christe i. Tim. ii Remember Paule writeth to Timothe that Iesus Christ rose agayne from deathe By which admoniciō he doth meane that there oughte nothynge amonges godly men to be more esteamed then the resurrection of Christe And that I may here take my begynnynge not only those argumentes by which Christ shewed him self alyue vnto his disciples after his resurrection do wytnesse the rysynge agayne of Christe from the deade but also the prophecies of the prophetes which were before the resurrection of Christ In the .xv. psalme he saith Therfore dyd my herte reioyce and my tong was glad moreouer my fleshe also shal rest in hope Because thou wylte not leaue my soule in hell neyther wylte suffre thyne holye one to se corrupcion And in an other Psalme The Lorde sayd to my lorde syt on my ryght hande vntyll I make thyn enemyes a fotestole vnder thy feete And that these be prophecies of the resurrection of Christe Peter wytnesseth in his first sermon which he made vpon witsondaye as it is written in the second chapter of the Actes of the Apostles To this agreeth Esaie Hys sepulchre sayth he shall be glorious For it appeareth by the begynnynge of that chapter which is the .xi. that Esaye in that place doeth preache of Christ and Paule approueth the same in the .xv. chapter to the Romayns And againe Esay sayeth in the .liii. chapter
