And yet you know, as you prove by your quotation,\r\nthat the Holy Spirit descended in such wise, that those who\r\nwere then filled with it spake with divers tongues: what was\r\nthe meaning of that sign and prodigy? Why then is the\r\nHoly Spirit given now in such wise, that no one to whom it\r\nis given speaks with divers tongues, except because that\r\nmiracle then prefigured that all nations of the earth should\r\nbelieve, and that thus the gospel should be found to be in\r\nevery tongue? Just as it was foretold in the psalm so long\r\nbefore: \"There is no speech nor language where their voice\r\nis not heard.\" This was said with reference to those men\r\nwho were destined, after receiving the Holy Spirit, to speak\r\nwith every kind of tongue. But because this passage itself\r\nsignified that the gospel should be found hereafter in all\r\nnations and languages, and that the body of Christ should\r\nsound forth throughout all the world in every tongue, therefore\r\nhe goes on to say, \"Their sound is gone out throughout all\r\nthe earth, and their words to the ends of the world.\" Hence\r\nit is that the true Church is hidden from no one.
