Paul / Peter / & all true Apostles preached Christ only. And the miracles did but confirm and stablish their preaching and those everlasting promises and eternal testament that God had made between man & him in Christs blood / and the miracles did testify also that they were true servants of Christ. Paul preached not him self • he taught not any man to trust in him or his holiness or in Peter or in any ceremony but in the promises which God hath sworn only / ye he mightily resisteth all such false doctrine ⟨p. Cxvij⟩both to the Corinthians / Galatians / Ephesians and everywhere.1 If this be true (as it is true and nothing more truer) that if Paul had preached him self or taught any man to believe in his holiness or prayer or in any thing / save in the promises that God hath made and sworn to give us for Christs sake / he had been a false prophet • why am not I also a false prophet / if I teach the to trust in Paul or in his holiness or prayer / or in any thing save in Gods word as Paul did.
