lest any should say, I had baptized into mine own name. true, I baptized the family of Stephanas: but I don't know that I baptized any other besides. for Christ did not send me to baptize: but to preach the gospel: tho' not with the preaching of the wise, lest the cross of Christ should have been hinder'd in its efficacy.

Then he said to them, go ye into all parts of the world, and preach the gospel to all mankind.

Jesus said to him, let the dead bury their dead; but do you go and preach the kingdom of God.

that mystery, which has been hid from ages and generations, but is now made manifest to his saints: to whom God does disclose the glorious advantages of this mystery to you Gentiles, to wit, "that by Christ you may have the expectation of glory." he it is that we preach, exhorting, and instructing men in every part of divine knowledge, that they may all be perfectly acquainted with the doctrine of Christ Jesus.

to preach the word with assiduity upon all occasions: reprove, censure, exhort, with the most tender persuasions. for the time will come, when they will not endure sound doctrine, but get teachers of their own corrupt taste, to sooth their ears that itch for flattery:

One day as Peter and John were going together to the temple, at the ninth hour, which was the hour of prayer, they were carrying a man who had been lame from his birth, one whom they daily laid at the gate of the temple called, Beauty-gate, to ask alms of those that pass'd into the temple. he seeing Peter and John going into the temple, asked alms of them. read more.
Peter and John having their eyes upon him, Peter said, look on us. at which he look'd very attentively, expecting to receive something of them. then Peter said, silver and gold have I none; but such as I have I give thee: in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, rise up and walk. and taking him by the right hand, he lift him up; and immediately his feet and ancle-bones received strength. so that he fell a leaping, and walking, and entred with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God. all the people saw him walking and praising God. and knowing it was he who us'd to sit begging at the Beauty-gate of the temple, they were filled with wonder and amazement at such an event. As the lame man who was cured, held Peter and John, the people all in surprize ran to Solomon's porch, where they were. which Peter observing, thus addressed them, ye men of Israel, why are ye so surprized at this event? or why do you look so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or piety, we had caus'd this man to walk?

insomuch that they brought the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least, the shadow of Peter might cover some of them, as he pass'd by. multitudes came likewise from the neighbouring cities to Jerusalem, bringing their sick, and those who were tormented with impure spirits: who were all cured.
