But he that hath made use of all these afforded him by the Spirit of God, viz. prophecies and voices from heaven, and such other evidences of divine revelation, ver. 13, he will be able to understand all these secrets perfectly, and being not himself persuaded by any other arguments but only by those that he hath thus received from the Spirit of God, he cannot reasonably be refuted by any other sort of arguments taken from human reason or worldly wisdom. And those methods and courses hath God pitched on, which are by the nobles and the potentates looked on as most despicable and empty and abject, that it may appear how empty are all those things that are most valued in the world, when these which they so much despise shall appear more effectual than they.
