IT was a great benefit that the Fathers received from Gods speaking to them by1 his Prophets. But behold a greater reserved to their children, even to all sorts2 of Christians, whether Jews or Gentiles, comprised under this particle Us; for he meaneth all believers of the Christian faith, that have lived, or shall live in these last days; that is, from the beginning of Christs executing his Ministerial function, to the end of the world. These have now continued above 1600 years; and how much longer they may continue, God knoweth.
