Whereunto that upbraiding which Paul useth tendeth, the Jews seek signs, 1For his meaning is that they were addicted unto signs without reason & measure, and that they were neither moved with the grace of Christ, or promises of eternal life, or secret working of the spirit: but that they did rather loathsomely refuse the gospel, because they can digest nothing but signs. And would to God there were not many at this day infected with the same disease: there is nothing more common then these words. Let miracles go before, that we may give ear unto this doctrine. As though the truth of Christ ought to be so vile and base in our: eyes, unless it be underpropped by some other thing. But although God should overwhelm them with an huge heap of wonders, ye do they lie when they say that they will believe there should some outward wondering arise: but they would take never▪ ⟨p. 105⟩a whit the more heed unto doctrine.
