1 John3:8

Verſe 8. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. He that committeth ſinne] That makes a trade of it, and can art it (as the word properly ſignifieth) not act it only.

Is of the devil] Bears his image, wears his livery: is as like him as if ſpet out of his mouth.

That be might deſtroy the Works] The devil then hath his works in the very hearts of the elect, for whoſe cauſe Chriſt came into the world.
