And First, We find their Commission, Mat. 28. 19, 20. Go and Disciple me all Nations, Baptizing them into the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatever I have Commanded you. And the Promise is, Lo, I am with you always to the end of the world. And Joh. 16. 7, 12, 13, 14, 15. It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Advocate will not come unto you: But if I depart I will send him unto you. I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. Howbeit, when he the spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all the truth: For he shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear, that he shall speak; and he shall show you things to come: He shall glorify me; for he shall receive of mine, and show it unto you, Luk. 24. 49. And behold I send the promise of my Father upon you: But tarry ye in the City of Jerusalem, till ye be endued ⟨p. 36⟩with power from on high; so Act. 1. 5. Ye shall be Baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence, Verse 8. But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you, and ye shall be witnesses to me, both in Jerusalem and to all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost parts of the earth. John 17. 8. I have given to them the words which thou gavest me, and they have received them, Verse 17, 18. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth: As thou hast sent me into the world, so I have also sent them into the world: And for their sakes I sanctify my self, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. John 14 26. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, & bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you.
