When Luther arose for the defence of the truth, a man might have said 1to him, What? doest thou set thy self against the whole World? go to thy cloister and say, Lord, have mercy upon us. Doest thou hope to reform the World against all the World? Alas, he trusted in God that raiseth the dead, that raiseth men to conversion when he pleaseth, and that raiseth the Church when he pleaseth, even from death. He raised the Church out of Babylon, And he will raise the Jews that now are in a dead state: why should we doubt of these things, when we believe, or profess to believe the main, the resurrection from the dead?
