Origen Against Celsus Book I Now Gamaliel, in the passage referred to, said: "If this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought" (as also did the designs of those men already mentioned after their death); "but if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow this doctrine, lest haply ye be found even to fight against God."[111] Gospel of Nicodemus I The Acts of Pilate Let him go, and do not wish any evil against him. If the miracles which he does are of God, they will stand; but if man, they will come to nothing.[21] Let him go, therefore; and if indeed what he does be from God, it will stand; but if from man, it will be destroyed.[83]
