And the keys1 of binding & loosing the apostles received of the Lord, in the .16. of Matth. and .20. chapt. of John. They open by the preaching of the gospel the bottomless pit, and hell it self to the ungodly, when they show unto them their damnation in hell, for their ungodliness. They shut up hell from the godly, whilst by the preaching of the gospel they open heaven, and bring the faithful to the joys celestial. I have spoken of the keys at large in an other place. A chain ⟨p. 591⟩is the sign of captivity.2 By the preaching of Gods word the Devil is taken and bound. Whereof it cometh to pass, that the common painters have painted the Devil bounden with chains to certain notable preachers.
