Not a good Living, or a great Dignity, or a Scholasticall Degree; which are indeed a kind of Gifts, but they doe not edifie. Noe, the Gifts which we must have, to prove our receiving the Holy Ghost, (and that we were not made Priests meerly to qualify us for wealth, to hold Preferments by that Title, that is to say, by that Name,) I say the Edifying Gifts which should distinguish us from the Laity, and shew the Divinity of our Function, are to be some of that Catalogue which Saint Paul gave to his Corinthians. If not the greatest in the Catalogue, the gift of Healing, and working Miracles, yet at least the gift of Prophesie, that is, of Preaching and applying the word of God. |
