And we hear expressly, that the Angel had not only the Gospel, but that he had preached the gospel.1 Many in deed have the gospel, but dumb, and written in books. The gospel must be showed forth and pronounced. He declareth also unto whom the gospel must be uttered and preached: to the inhabitants of the earth: for it must be cried out to such as are drowned in earthly matters, and they must be raised out of their sleep. And after his manner and imitation of blessed Daniel in the .7. chapt. He reckoneth up nations, kindreds, tongues, and people: and thus signifieth that the gospel shall be preached •••ough out the whole world. Which thing the lord said also should come to pass in the .24. of Matth. and than that the end should come. And we see at this day, that the gospel hath in a manner thundered through out the whole world. And here I give warning leest any deceive him self. The apostle in the .1. Timoth. 3. and .1.

Therefore shall he always resist Christ.

The gospel must be shewed forth and pronounced. He declareth also vnto whom the gospel must be vttered and preached: to the inhabiters of the earth: for it must be cried out to such as are drowned in earthly matters, and they muste be reysed out of their slepe. And after his maner and imitation of blessed Daniel in the .7. chapt. He rekeneth vp nations, kinredes, tunges, and people: and thus signifieth that the gospell shal be preached ough out the whole worlde. Whiche thing the lord sayde also should come to passe in the .24. of Matth. and than that the ende should come. And we see at this daye, that the gospel hath in a maner thondered through out the whole world. And here I geue warning leeste any disceaue him self. Thapostle in the .
