Neither by spirit: that is, by revelation of the spirit. The spirit of God wrought mightily, and bestowed sundry and great gifts upon men. Christ said to his Disciples, When they deliver you up, take ye no 1thought, how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour, what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your father, which speaketh in you. And again, saith he, I will pray the father, 2and he shall give you an other comforter, that he may bide with you for ever. The spirit of trueth, whom the world can not receive, because the world feeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him: for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. The holy Ghost shall be with you, to assist ⟨p. 253⟩you, to teach you all things, to direct your counsels, to lead you into all trueth, and to preserve you from all error.
Neither by spirite: that is, by reuelation of the spirite. The spirite of God wrought mightily, and bestowed sundrie and great giftes vppon men. Christ sayde to his Disciples, When they deliuer you vp, take yee no 1thought, howe or what ye shal speake: for it shal bee giuen you in that same houre, what yee shall speake. For it is not ye that speake, but the spirite of your father, which speaketh in you. And againe, saith he, I wil pray the father, 2and he shal giue you an other comforter, that hee may bide with you for euer. The spirite of trueth, whome the worlde can not receiue, because the worlde feeth him not, neither knoweth him: but yee knowe him: for he dwelleth with you, and shal bee in you. The holie Ghost shal be with you, to assist ⟨p. 253⟩you, to teach you al thinges, to direct your counsels, to leade you into al trueth, and to preserue you from al errour.
