So Art Thou An Infidel

Willian Tyndale, p. 174: “he that bindeth himself to the Pope and have lever have his life and soul rule by the Pope's will than by the will of God and by the Pope's word than by the word of God, is a fool. And he that had lever be bond than free is not wise. And he that will not abide in the freedom wherein Christ hath set us, is also mad. And he that maketh deadly sin where none is and seeketh causes of hatred between him and God is not in his right wits. Furthermore no man can bind himself further than he hath power over himself. He that is under the power of another man cannot bind himself without licence, as son, daughter, wife, servant and subject. Neither can thou give God that which is not in thy power. Chastity canst thou not give God further than God lendeth it thee: if thou cannot live chaste thou art bound to marry or to be damned. Last of all what purpose thou bindest thyself must bee seen. If thou do it to obtain thereby that which Christ hath purchased for thee freely, so are thou an infidel and hast no part with Christ and so forth.”
