The Comforter, even the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, that I have said unto you. Therefore so long as the Lord was with them, and told them all the matter of his passion, they were sorry, and could not bear away all that he said unto them. But after that he was taken up from the earth into heaven, he sent the Holy Ghost, even him, whom the Prophets also had before, and that led them into all Christian verity.

The Comforter, even the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, that I have said unto you. Therefore so long as the Lord was with them, and told them all the matter of his passion, they were sorrie, and could not beare away all that he said unto them. But after that he was taken up from the earth into heaven, he sent the Holy Ghost, even him, whom the Prophets also had before, and that led them into all Christian veritie.

So when they were endued with the Holy Ghost, they began (according to the Lords commandment) to preach in all the world the foresaid matter of salvation purchased and obtained only by Christ, and gotten by true faith. For he had said; Go your way into all the world, ¹and preach the Gospel unto all creatures, Whoso believeth and is baptized, shall be saved, &c. And therewith comprehendeth he both the points, which the Apostles used and practised, even the preaching of the faith in Jesus Christ, and of the ministration of the Sacraments. And how the Apostles doctrine was, it is manifest out of the Acts of the Apostles. But shortly and in a sum, they preached amendment of life, and remission of sins through Jesus Christ: That is ⟨p. 93⟩to say, how that the whole generation of man lay in the dominion of the Devil, and in the bonds of sin, cursed, and damned: but God had mercy on us all, and sent his Son into this world to die, and with his death to restore us unto life, and to wash us with his blood, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have eternal life. All this declared they out of the Law and the Prophets, and proved, that Jesus Christ whom they preached, is the blessed seed promised unto the fathers. Whoso is desirous to have a perfect example of this declaration, he findeth two Sermons of the famous Apostles Peter and Paul, the one in the Acts of the Apostles, the second chapter, vers. 14. the other in the 13. chapter, vers. 16. There doth the holy Apostle open the mystery of our holy faith, very excellently, declaring it from the time of Abraham unto David, and from him unto John the Baptist. Thereupon showeth he, how Christ suffered, died, was buried, and rose again from death. All this confirmeth he with the Scriptures of the Prophets. At the last he concludeth the Sermon after this manner; Be it known unto you therefore,
