And the beginning of them is here referred to God and ⟨p. 314⟩to his Christ as the original of Antichrist is reduced to the devil him self.1 I will give, sayeth the lord, to my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy. Christ sendeth preachers, & giveth to them also that they can preach. The which is a wonderful comfort. For like as the devil many times sendeth, instructeth, and helpeth his false prophets. So Christ leaveth not his church destitute, and giveth to this ministers ability of teaching and doing luckily. For in the Gospel also he promised and said: I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which they shall not resist, so many as be against you. These things ought to comfort us, in the grievous consultations, treasons & assaults of the enemies of the Gospel. Christ will not forsake his ministers, so they be faithful, and depend upon Christ alone.
