“[Jesus] chose twelve apostles to testify...[b]ut what coudl the testimony of twelve poor, though hoenst men, prevail against the confronting suffrage of the world? Wherefore the work of bearing witness to Christ, was committed to him who is above all, and who is able to make his testimony prevalent...Accordingly the apostles plead his concurring testimony--'We are his witnesses--and so also is the Holy Spriit'”
