A26209	Augustine, Saint, Bishop of Hippo.	Digitus dei or God appearing in his wonderfull works For the conuiction of nullifidians.	1676		.xml	application/xml	22977	572	56	How comes it then to pass , that Christ is so generally held and believed to have been taken in body into Heaven ? How happned it , that in thase criticall times , when men made such scruples of admitting any thing which seemed to carry impossibility with it , they believed things notwithstanding , even without the vouching of miracles , which were extreamly incredible in themselves ? Will they , perchance , say , that they therefore believed them , because they were credible ? why then do they themselves refuse to believe them . But that only , which in our present case ( concerning things in themselves immediatly of an inferiour degree ) I think reasonable to demand , and necessary for the persons we are arguing with to grant , is , not to deny human or historicall faith , at least to matters of fact proposed with so many circumstances of Unquestionable credibility , that peremptorily to deny them , without positive and clear evidence against them , would make the world believe their whole soules were turn'd fancy , or will , and that they had renounced all right to the noblest part of man , Reason and Vnderstanding .	cache/A26209.xml	txt/A26209.txt
