whether we stand fast in the faithe <strong>of</strong> God's elect, or contrariwise<br />

have strayed from him through incredulitie and ungodly lyvinge<br />

wher<strong>of</strong> if our consciences do accuse us, yet by hearing the loving<br />

promises <strong>of</strong> our heavenly Father, (who calleth all men to mercie<br />

by repentance, ) we may from hensforthe walke more warely in our<br />

vocation.<br />

Moreover, ye that be fathers and mothers may take hereby moste<br />

singular comfort, to se your children thus receyved in to the<br />

bosome <strong>of</strong> Christes congregation, wherby you are daily admonished<br />

that ye norishe and bring up the children <strong>of</strong> God's favor and<br />

mercye, over whom his fatherly providence watcheth continually.<br />
