of penaunce as we vse to say geue me leue to make you werye thys daye The Iewes had hym to Cayphas and Annas and there they whypte hym and bethym they sette a crowne of sharpe thorne vpon hys head and nayled hym to a tree yet al thys was not so bytter as thys horroure of death and thys Agony that he suffered in the gradayne in suche a degree as is dewe to all the synnes of the world and not to one mannes synne Wel thys passion is our remedye it is the satisfaction for oure synnes Hys soule descended to hell for a tyme. Here is muche a do these newe vpstartynge spirites say Christ neuer descended into hell neyther body nor soule Inscorne they will aske was he ther what dyd he there what if we cannot telle what he dyd there The crede goeth no further but fayeth he descended thyther what is that to vs if we cannot tell seynge we were taughte no further Paule was taken vp into the third heauen aske lykewyse what he sawe when we was caryed thyther you shall not fynde in scripture what he sawe or what he dyd there shall we not therfore beleue that he was ther. Â¶ These arrogant spirites spirites of vayne glorye bycause they knowe not by any expresse scripture the order of his doynges in hell they wyll not beleue that euer he descended into hel In dede thys article hathe not so full scripture so many places and testimonies of scriptures as other haue yet it hathe ynoughe it hath .ii. or .iii. textes if it had but one one texte of scripture is of as good and lawfull authoritye as a M. and of as certayne trueth It is not to be wayed by the multitude of textes I beleue as certaynelye and verelye that thys Realme of Englande hath as good authoritye to heare Goddes word as any nacion in al the worlde it maye be gathered by .ii. textes one of them is thys Ite in vniuersum mundum et predicate euangelium omni creature Go into the whole world and preache the Gospell to all creatures And agayn deus â—ult omnes homines saluos fieri God wyl haue all men to be saued he exceptes not the Englishemen here nor yet expresselye nameth theym and yet I am as sure that thys Realme of England by thys gatheryng is allowed to here Goddes word as though Christ hadde sayed a thousand tymes Go preach to Englysh men I wyl that Englyshemen be saued Because thys Article of hys descendyng into hell can not be gathered so directlye so necessarylye so formallye they do vtterlye deny it Thys article hath Scriptures two or thre ynoughe for quiete mynde as for curyouse braynes nothynge can content theym Thys the diuils sterryng vp of such spirites of sedicion is an euidente argumente that the light is come forth for his word is a brode when the deuyll russheth when he roreth when he styrreth vp suche busy spirites to sclaunder it My entente is not to entreate of thys matter at thys tyme. I trust the people wyll not be caryed awaye wyth these newe arrogant spirites I dout not but good preachers wyllabour agaynst them But now I wyll say a worde and herein I prottest fyrst of al not arrogantlye to determyne and defyne it I wyll contende wyth no man for it I wyll not haue it be preiudice to anye body but I offer it vnto you to consyder and weay it There be some greate clarkes that take my parte and I perceyue not what euyll can come of it in sayeng y t our Sauiour Christe dyd not onely in soule descende into hell but also that he suffered in hell suche paynes as the damned spirites dyd suffer there Suerly I beleue verelye for my parte that he suffered the paynes of hell proporcionably as it correspondes and aunsweres to the whole synne of the worlde He would not suffer onelye bodelye in the gardayne and vpon the crosse but also in hys soule when it was from the bodye whyche was a payne dew for our syn Some wryte so and I canne beleue it that he suffered in the very place I cannot tell what it is call it what ye wyll euen in the skaldinge howse in the vgsomnes of the place in the presence of the place suche payne as our capacitie can not attayne vnto it is somewhat declared vnto vs when we vtter it by these effectes by fyre by gnashynge of teth by the worme that gnaweth on the conscience What so euer the payne is it is a greate payne that he suffered for vs. I se no inconuenyence to saye that Chryste suffered in soule in hell I singularly commende the excedynge greate charytye of Christe that for our sakes wold suffer in hel in hys soule It settes oute the vnspeakable hatred that God hath to synne I perceyue not that it doth derogate any thing froÌ„ the dignitie of Chrystes death as in the gardayne when he suffered it derogates nothing froÌ„ y t he suffred on the crosse Scripture speaketh on this fashioÌ„ Qui credit in me habet vitam eternam He that beleueth in me hath lyfe euerlasting Here he settes furth faith as the cause of our iustifycatioÌ„ in other places as high commeÌ„dacion is geuen to workes and yet are the worckes anye derogation from that dignitye of fayth No. And agayn scripture sayeth Traditus est propter peccata nostra et exuscitatus propter iustificationem c. It attributeth here oure iustyfycation to his resurrectioÌ„ and doeth thys derogate anye thynge from hys death not a whit It is whole Christ. What wyth his natiuytye what wyth hys circumcysyon what wyth hys incarnation and the whole processe of hys lyfe wyth hys preachyng what wyth hys ascendynge descendynge what wyth hys death it is all Chryst that worketh oure saluacyon He sytteth on the ryghthande of the father and all for vs. All this is the worke of oure saluation I woulde be as lothe to derogate any thyng from Christes death as the best of you al. How vnestymably are we bouÌ„d to hym what thankes oughte we to geue him for it We must haue thys contynuallye in remembraunce Propter te morti tradimur tota die For the we are in dieyng continually The life of a Chrsten man is nothynge but a readines to dye and a remembrauce of death If thys that I haue spoken of Christes sufferynge in the gardayne and in hell derogate any thinge from Christes death and passyon awaye wyth it beleue me not in thys if it do not it commendes and settes furth very wel vnto vs the perfection of the satisfacion that Christ made for vs and the woorck of a redemption not onelye before wytnes in thys worlde but in hel in that vgsome place where whether he suffered or wrastled w t the spitites or coÌ„forted AbrahaÌ„ Isaac Iacob I wyl not desier to knowe Yf ye lyke not that which I haue spoken of hys sufferynge let it go I wyl not striue
