4, 5, 6. It is not my bare word but my works that shall answer you: it is by the fruit that the tree must be known: The miraculous works of Divine Power are done, and the works of love to mens bodies, and the Gospel of Salvation is preached for their Souls. And these being Gods works, are Gods testimony what I am. And yet the meanness of my appearance, and my contempt and suffering from men, will be to many, a stumbling block, and make the work of believing difficult, and blessed are they that believe notwithstanding all these difficulties.
