How many are the chosen in Christ, and Christ the redeemer, that Son of God, the most certain heir of all things: Col. 1. Through whom it pleased the Father to restore all things, once lost by the cunning and fraud of the deceitful dragon, Eph. 1. and to prepare for himself a great and praiseworthy name. Ps. 2. The song of the divine Psalmist testifies sufficiently: that He established His Son as King and teacher of His word. And He commanded from high Olympus that the Son be heard as a certain and faithful master. Matt. 17. And indeed, the chosen neither can nor want to be deprived of that master, whose voice is most sweet, John 6. whose word leads to eternal life, while all other things breathe deadly poison. Will you, that three-headed Cerberus, prohibit this? Will you oppose the heavenly Father and overturn His commands? Will you disturb the Son of God from His high throne? Will you take away the Gospel and forbid the truth, and impose your own delusions upon the world as you once did? Attempt it in vain, for such things exceed your strength and will sooner lead to your deserved ruin. Did you not read in the aforementioned song: that Kings conspire, and many nations plot empty things, and show their internal anger by roaring against the Lord and His Christ, but in the meantime, God laughs at these empty efforts and receives them only with ridicule? He wishes better for the world, Cerberus, than you do. And He will do it, just as He has done from the very first age.
