The Apostles wrought miracles, thereby to confirm the Gospel which they preached. As the Evangelist writeth, The Lord wrought 1with them and confirmed the word with signs that followed. And as the Apostle, Salvation 2at the first began to be preached by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us, by them that heard him, God bearing witness thereto, with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles and gifts of the holy ghost, according to his will. So shall Antichrist work miracles, to overthrow the gospel. As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses: 3so do these also resist the truth, men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall prevail no longer, for their madness shall be known to all men, as theirs also was.

And as the Apostle, Saluation 2at the first began to be preached by the Lorde, and was confirmed vnto vs, by them that heard him, God bearing witnesse thereto, with signes and wonders, and with diuers miracles and gifts of the holie ghost, according to his wil. So shal Antichrist worke miracles, to ouerthrowe the gospell. As Iannes and Iambres withstood Moses: 3so doe these also resist the truth, men of corrupt mindes, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall preuaile no longer, for their madnesse shall be knowne to all men, as theirs also was.
