1 Being asked if there might now be visions agreeable to the word, he said: They might be extraordinary, but not to be credited but for the words sake: and who so is moved with them, and not with the word, wherewith a man is charged to be moved, and is not drawn the more by the vision to the true means, that mans faith is suspicious.¹ And as visions have been ordinary, and preaching extraordinary: so now preaching is ordinary, and visions extraordinary. But if you object that the visions be true: he said, Satan will speak truth, and keep touch twice or thrice in less matters, to get us in the lu•ch in greater matters, and at length in some contrary to the word of God.
