Answ. A testimony receiveth his force from the witness-bearer. An humane testimony1 is not counted infallible, because men are subject to ignorance, error, and manifold corruptions. But a divine testimony is infallible, in that it resteth on the highest and soundest ground of truth, which is the word of God; for it is impossible for God to lye, Heb. 6. 18, See Chap. 3. v. 3. §. 26.

Thus this proof is more sure and sound then any logical or mathematical demonstration can be. Nothing more convinceth a believer, or more prevaileth with him, then a Scripture proof.
