But yet all this Court - fell (which elfevvhere he tale 1-0,P6e.ovrAti-, the tellimonie of God) he gathers together into this one conclufion, I determined not to know any thing amongfl you,that is, in my preaching unto you to make difcovery of any other know ledge, as matter ofconfequence or faith, but only cflefut Chrifi, andhim crucified.
