JOIA. Although John did not know Christ to be one god with the father, & the holy ghost. ⟨image 12⟩Whereby it should follow, that when John did baptise, and send or direct men unto Jesus, that he did baptise & direct or send them unto a bare man. Which thing how ungodly it is, who doth not see? John Baptist did know Christ to be the son of god, equal with the father in all things, he knew also that the spirit of god did inhabit and dwell in him, which was given unto him after no measure,1 but of whose fullness all men did receive. John .i. Chapter. For this cause he attributeth so much unto Christ, that he did send all men unto him and prepared the people for him. Farthermore he did baptise them in the name of Jesus, because that he knew him too be one god with the father and the holy ghost.
