Dorcas Dole: Once More a Warning. . . (1686)

". . .and when she (Mary Magdalen) asked for her Lord in the Resurrection of Life and Power he appeared unto her, and inbued her with Wisdom and Power, and sent her to Preach the Resurrection to his Disciples; for if Christ send us in a Message, whether the Words be few or many, it is Preaching the Everlasting Gospel, whether it be male or Female, they are all one in Christ; for as the Woman fell first into the Transgression, so in the Restoration Christ first appeared unto her, and sent her to declare unto the men that he was risen. . ."
