Jesus

For we stretche not our selues beyonde our measure, as though wee had not attained vnto you: for euen to you also haue we come in preaching the Gospel of Christ,

But let him that reioyceth, reioyce in the Lord.

For hee that praiseth himselfe, is not alowed, but he whome the Lord praiseth.

For I am ielous ouer you, with godly ielousie: for I haue prepared you for one husband, to present you as a pure virgine to Christ:

But I feare least as the serpent beguiled Eue through his subtiltie, so your mindes shoulde be corrupt from the simplicitie that is in Christ.

For if he that commeth, preacheth another Iesus whome we haue not preached: or if yee receiue another spirite whome ye haue not receiued: either another Gospell, which yee haue not receiued, ye might well haue suffered him.

The trueth of Christ is in me, that this reioycing shall not be shut vp against me in the regions of Achaia.

For such false apostles are deceitfull workers, and transforme themselues into the Apostles of Christ.

That I speake, I speake it not after the Lord: but as it were foolishly, in this my great boasting.

They are the ministers of Christ (I speake as a foole) I am more: in labours more aboundant: in stripes aboue measure: in prison more plenteously: in death oft.

The God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, which is blessed for euermore, knoweth that I lie not.

It is not expedient for me no doubt to reioyce: for I will come to visions and reuelations of the Lord.

I know a man in Christ aboue fourteene yeeres agone, (whether he were in the body, I can not tell, or out of the body, I can not tell: God knoweth) which was taken vp into the thirde heauen.

For this thing I besought the Lord thrise, that it might depart from me.

And he said vnto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is made perfect through weakenesse. Very gladly therefore will I reioyce rather in mine infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

Againe, thinke yee that wee excuse our selues vnto you? we speake before God in Christ. But wee doe all thinges, dearely beloued, for your edifying.

Seeing that ye seeke experience of Christ, that speaketh in mee, which towarde you is not weake, but is mightie in you.

For though hee was crucified concerning his infirmitie, yet liueth hee through the power of God. And wee no doubt are weake in him, but we shall liue with him, through the power of God towarde you.

Proue your selues whether ye are in the faith: examine your selues: knowe yee not your owne selues, howe that Iesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

Therefore write I these thinges being absent, least when I am present, I should vse sharpenesse, according to the power which the Lord hath giuen mee, to edification, and not to destruction.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

Pavl an Apostle (not of men, neither by man, but by Iesus Christ, and God the Father which hath raised him from the dead)

Grace be with you, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Iesus Christ,

Which gaue himself for our sinnes, that he might deliuer vs from this present euill world according to the will of God euen our Father,

I marueile that ye are so soone remoued away vnto another Gospel, from him that had called you in the grace of Christ,
