Matthew26:64

Verse 64. Thou hast said] That is, as St Mark expresseth the Hebraisme in plainer tearms, I am. q. d. Thou hast said it, and I must second it, I am indeed the promised Messias, and the only-begotten sonne of God. This was the naked truth without Equivocation: a device that the Jesuites have lately fet from hell, for the consolation of afflicted Catholikes, and for the instruction of all the godly, as Blackwell and Garnet blush not to professe in print. Let us learn here of our Saviour, to make a bold and wise confession of the truth, when called thereunto: although we create our selves thereby never so much danger from the enemy who shall so be either converted, or at least convinced, and left inexcusable. Hereafter shall ye see, &c.] q. d. Now I am in a state of abasement, God having hid his sonne under the Carpenters son, whom ye have now bound, and shall shortly crucifie. But not long hence, ye shall see me in a state of advancement, sitting on the right hand of power, powring out my spirit upon all flesh, Acts 2 33. and, after that, coming in the clouds of heaven, as in a charet of state, to judge you that are now my Judges, &c.
