Note of Dr. Hey. Second and Third Centiiries. 83 Church, and the immediate successors of the apostles in that government (as well as their companions and friends), ever speaks of himself as capable of counteracting... the ordinary powers of nature : they all endeavour to inculcate the morality and religion of the gospel, but that merely as men, possessed indeed of the sense and meaning of the sacred writers, but entirely void of their extraordinary power. This fact, though not wholly uncontro- verted, is very nearly so ; some ambiguous expressions concerning the graces and gifts of the Holy Spirit have been, not without great violence, extended to signify an extraordinary communica- tion with the Deity but no one has so much as pretended that such communication was ever meant to answer any further end than that of strengthening the weakness of human nature against the terrors of persecution.
