Put thy trust in God.

I would, that it were more;
I fear, lest it be not enough;

I grieve that I cannot;

I should joy, if I could.

I believe, verily, to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living;

that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

that if any man sin,

we have an Advocate with the Father,
Jesus Christ the Righteous:

and He is the Propitiation for our sins;
and not for ours only,

but also for the sins of the whole world. that Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living

God.

that Thou art the Son of God; Thou art the King of Israel.

that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of .the world.

that Thou art the Christ, the Son of God, Which should come into the world.

that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. that we shall be saved through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

that we have found the Messiah, Which is the

Christ.

We have believed in Jesus Christ,

that we might be justified by the faith of Christ,
and not by the works of the law.
There is one God,

and one Mediator between God and men,
the Man Christ Jesus,

Who

gave

Himself a ransom for all.

Faith wrought with his works,
and by works was faith made perfect.

PRAYER OF THOMAS BRADWARDINE,

Archbishop of Canterbury,

TH
