Matthew(i)
12 Remember I saye, that ye were at that tyme without Christe, and were reputed aliantes from the commen welth of Israel, and were straungers from the testamentes of promes, and had no hope and were wythout God in thys worlde.
13 But nowe in Christ Iesu, ye whych a whyle ago were farre of are made nygh by the bloud of Christe.
14 For he is our peace, whiche had made of both one, and hath broken doune the wall that was a stop betwene vs,
15 and hath also put awaye thorowe hys fleshe the cause of hatred (that is to saye, the lawe of commaundementes contayned in the lawe written) for to make of twayne one newe man in hym selfe, so makinge peace:
16 and to reconcile both vnto God in one body thorowe his crosse, and slew hatered therby:
17 and came and preached peace to you, whiche were a farre of, and to them that were nygh.
18 For thorowe hym we both haue an open waye in, in one spyrite vnto the father.
19 Nowe therfore ye are no more straungers and foreners, but citizyns with the sainctes, and of the houshold of God:
20 and are buylt vpon the foundation of the Apostles & Prophetes, Iesus Christe beynge the head corner stone,
21 in whom euerye buyldinge coupled together, groweth vnto an holye temple in the Lorde,
22 in whom ye also are buylde together, and made an habitacion for god in the spyryte.
3 1 For this cause I Paule am in the bondes of Iesu Christ for your sakes, whiche are heathen.
2 Yf ye haue hearde of the ministration of the grace of God, whiche is geuen me to youward.
3 For by reuelation shewed he this misterie to me as I wrote aboue in fewe wordes,
4 wherby when ye reade, ye maye knowe myne vnderstandinge in the misterye of Christe.
5 Which mysterye in tymes passed was not opened to the sonnes of men, as it is now declared vnto his holye Apostles and Prophetes by the spyrite
6 that the Gentyles shoulde be inheritours also, and of the same bodye, and partakers of hys promes that is in Christe, by the meanes of the Gospell,
7 wherof I am made a mynyster, by the gyfte of the grace of God geuen vnto me thorowe the workynge of hys power.
8 Vnto me the leaste of all sainctes is this grace geuen, that I shoulde preache amonge the Gentyls the vnsearcheable ryches of Christe,
