ipsosque ad omnes gentes legavit, ut eos qui in ignorantiae tenebris sedebant (Luc. I), illuminarent, atque in Patris et Filii et Spiritus sancti nomine baptizarent,

H.E.Kinck, 1852 p. 1,1
Og derfor besluttede Mange efter den hellige Aands Kald, ganske at forsage Verden og forlade dens faafængelige Daarlighed. De fjernede sig aldeles fra Verden, fra Frænder og Gods og fra dette flygtige Liv’s faafængelige Rigdom og Velvære. En Del drog til Örkener, Nogle til strengt Klosterliv, Andre droge at prædike den rette Tro til Frelse for sig og Andre, Andre tjente Gud paa forskjellige Maader, efter som den hellige Aand gav dem sin Vilje tilkjende paa forskjellig Vis.
