Consider also his maliciousness / how wickedly and how craftily he taketh away the authority of Paul. It is much rather true of the Gospels and of every place in them then of paul. 1If that which the four Evangelists wrote be truer then that which Paul wrote / then is it not one Gospel that they preached / nether one sprite that taught them. If it be one Gospel and one sprite / how is one truer then the other? 2Paul proveth his authority to the Galatians and to the Corinthians / because that he received his Gospel by revelation of Christ and not of man / and because that when he communed with Peter and the high Apostles of his Gospel and preaching / they could improve no thing / nether teach him any thing: and because also that as many were converted and as great miracles showed by his preaching as at the preaching of the high Apostles / and therefore will be of no less authority / ⟨image 62⟩then Peter and other high Apostles. Nor have his Gospel of less reputation than theirs
