John14:11

11. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works sake .

Believe my words (for that is your duty); but yet if you will not believe m[illegible: 1 letter] words, declaring to you my Union with my Father, [illegible: 1 span] [illegible: 1 letter]ou see me doing such works as none but God [illegible: 1 span] me for their sake. It is true, that both the [illegible: 1 word] and the Apostles spake God's words, not their own to the Peo[illegible: 1 letter]le, and also did many great and mighty works; but still their Doctrine led unto another, that was Christ; and their Miracles were not wrought in their own names, but in the name of Christ. Elijah raised the Shunamites dead child to life by prayer to God that he would do it; and the Apostles bid the lame man arise, and walk, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Christ's Doctrine terminated in himself; he call'd men to believe in him, and he wrought Miracles by his own power, and by a vertue proceeding out of, and from himself, tho by the power of his Father also, because he and his Father were one in Essence.
