[ 606] The powerful effct of the Word of God preached.

PHiletus, a Disciple of Hermogenes that Conjurer, coming to dispute, and maintain an Argument with St. Iames the elder,* 1.1 relid much upon his Sophi∣stry, but the Apostle preached Christ unto him with that powerfulness, that Phi∣letus returning back to his Master, told him, Magus abieram, Christianus redeo, I went forth a Conjurer, but am returned a Christian▪ O the power of divine Truth! If Peter do but preach, the Iews will cry out, Men and Brehren, what shall we do to be saved? Where the word goes along with the operation of the blessed spirit, crooked things will be made straight, Mountains will be levell with the Valleys, sinners will become Saints, and there will be a daily addition to the Church, of such as shall be saved.
