The false apostles, it is true, do the same but then, by usurping a title that does not belong to them, they gain nothing among the sons of God, who can with the utmost ease convict them of impertinence. Paul an Apostle As to the reasons why he designates himself an Apostle of Christ, and adds that he has obtained this honor by the will of God, see the foregoing Epistle, where it has been observed that none are to be listened to but those, who have been sent by God, and speak from his mouth, and that, consequently, to secure authority for any one, two things are required - a call, and fidelity on the part of the person who is called, in the execution of his office. Quia sicuti abundant passiones Christi in nos: ita per Christum abundat etiam consolatio nostra.ġ. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.ĥ. Qui consolatur nos in omni tribulatione nostra, ut possimus consolari eos qui in omni tribulatione sunt, per consolationem qua consolatur nos Deus.ĥ. Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.Ĥ. Benedictus Deus, et Pater Domini nostri Iesu Christi, Pater misericordiarum, et Deus omnis consolationis,Ĥ. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort ģ.
Gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Iesu Christo.ģ. Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.Ģ.
