Doct. I. The chief part of the prophesies of all the true Prophets that have been from the beginning of the world, was concerning the grace and salvation that should come by Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.
Doct. I. The chiefe part of the prophesies of all the true Prophets that have beene from the beginning of the world, was concerning the grace and salvation that should come by Iesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.
This is gathered from the tenth Verse. The like you may see, Acts 3. 18, 20. and 7. 52.
Reason I. Because the salvation of the Church in all ages depended upon Christ: Now it was the office of the Prophets to direct the Church in the seeking of their salvation.
2. All the Prophets were Ministers of Christ, and were led by his Spirit, Verse 11. and therefore ought to seek his honour.
