2. And as ordinarily doth the Scripture tell us, that the preaching of the Gospel is the means of faith and holiness, by which God saveth them that believe; and that by the hearing of faith preached, the spirit is given, Gal. 3.2, &c. Rom. 10.14, 17. John 5.24. Acts 18.8. Acts 10.44. The holy ghost fell on all them that heard the word, before they were baptized, even the miraculous gift of the Spirit, Matth. 13.18. Mark 4.20. Luke 8.13, 21. and 11.28. Christ himself preached, but did not baptize: He sent forth his Disciples to convert men by preaching, Matth. 10.7. and 11.1. Mark 1.38. and 3.14. Luke 4.18, 19, 43. and 9.2, 60. Acts 5.42. and 10.42. and 8.5, 25, 35, 40. and 9.20.
