Therefore, most dearworthy brethren, we that have these promises, cleanse we us from all filth of the flesh and of the spirit, doing holiness in the dread of God.
that by two things unmoveable, by which it is impossible that God lie, we have strongest solace, [or comfort], we that flee together to hold the hope that is put forth to us.
Blessed be God, and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which by his great mercy begat us again into living hope, by the again-rising of Jesus Christ from death,
By whom he gave to us most precious promises; that by these things ye shall be made fellows of God’s kind, and flee the corruption of that covetousness, that is in the world.
