Articles whereupon it was agreed by the Archbishoppes and Bishoppes of both prouinces and the whole cleargie in the Conuocation holden at London in the yere of our Lorde GOD. 1562. according to the computation of the Churche of Englande for the auoiding of the diuersities of opinions and for the stablishyng of consent touching true religion Put foorth by the Queenes aucthoritie Articles Of fayth in the holy Trinitie THERE is but one lyuyng and true God euerlastyng without body partes or passions of infinite power wysdome goodnesse the maker and preseruer of al things both visible and inuisible And in vnitie of this Godhead there be three persons of one substaunce power and eternitie the father the sonne and the holy ghost Of the worde or sonne of God which was made very man. THE Sonne which is the worde of the Father begotten from euerlastyng of the Father the very and eternall GOD of one substaunce with the father toke mans nature in the wombe of the blessed Virgin of her substaunce so that two whole and perfect natures that is to say the Godhead and manhood were ioyned together in one person neuer to be diuided whereof is one Christe very GOD and very man who truely suffered was crucified dead and buried to reconcile his father to vs and to be a sacrifice not only for originall gylt but also for all actuall sinnes of men Of the goyng downe of Christe into hell AS Christe dyed for vs and was buryed so also it is to be beleued that he went downe into hell Of the Resurrection of Christe CHriste dyd truely aryse agayne from death and toke agayne his body with flesh bones and all thinges apparteyning to the perfection of mans nature wherewith he ascended into heauen and there sitteth vntyll he returne to iudge all men at the last day Of the holy ghost THE holy ghost proceedyng from the father and the sonne is of one substaunce maiestie and glorie with the father and the sonne very and eternall God. Of the sufficiencie of the holy Scriptures for saluation HOlye Scripture conteyneth all thinges necessarie to saluation so that whatsoeuer is not read therein nor may be proued therby is not to be required of anye man that it shoulde be beleued as an article of the fayth or be thought requisite necessarie to saluation In the name of holy Scripture we do vnderstande those Canonicall bookes of the olde and newe Testament of whose aucthoritie was neuer any doubt in the Churche Of the names and number of the Canonicall Bookes Genesis Exodus Leuiticus Numerie Deuteronomium Iosue Iudges Ruth The .1 boke of Samuel The .2 boke of Samuel The .1 booke of Kinges The .1 booke of Chroni The .2 booke of Chroni The .1 booke of Esdras The .2 booke of Esdras The booke of Hester The booke of Iob. The Psalmes The Prouerbes Ecclesia or preacher Cantica or songes of Sa. 4. Prophetes the greater The .2 booke of Kinges 12. Prophetes the lesse And the other bookes as Hierome sayth the Churche doth reade for example of lyfe and instruction of maners but yet doth it not applie them to establishe any doctrine Such are these folowyng The third boke of Esdras The fourth boke of Esdras The booke of Tobias The booke of Iudith The rest of the booke of Hester The booke of VVisdome Iesus the sonne of Sirach Baruch the prophet Song of the .3 children The storie of Susanna Of Bel and the Dragon The prayer of Manasses The .1 boke of Machab. The .2 booke of Macha All the bookes of the newe Testament as they are commonly receaued we do receaue and accompt them for Canonicall Of the olde Testament THE olde Testament is not contrary to the newe for both in the olde and newe Testament euerlastyng lyfe is offered to mankynde by Christe who is the onlye mediatour betweene God and man being both God and man Wherefore they are not to be hearde whiche faigne that the olde fathers dyd looke onlye for transitorie promises Although the lawe geuen from God by Moyses as touchyng ceremonies and rites do not bynde Christian men nor the ciuile preceptes therof ought of necessitie to be receaued in any common wealth yet notwithstandyng no Christian man whatsoeuer is free from the obedience of the commaundementes whiche are called morall Of the three Credes THE three Credes Nicene Crede Athanasius Crede and that whiche is commonlye called the Apostles Crede ought throughlye to be receaued and beleued for they may be proued by moste certayne warrauntes of holye scripture Of originall or birth sinne ORiginall sinne standeth not in the folowing of Adam as the Pelagians do vaynely talke but it is the fault and corruption of the nature of euery man that naturally is engendred of the ofspring of Adam whereby man is very farre gone from originall ryghteousnes and is of his owne nature enclined to euyll so that the fleshe lusteth alwayes contrary to the spirite and therefore in euery person borne into this worlde it deserueth Gods wrath and damnation And this infection of nature doth remayne yea in them that are regenerated whereby the luste of the fleshe called in Greke 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which some do expounde the wisdome some sensualitie some the affection some the desyre of the fleshe is not subiect to the lawe of god And although there is no condemnation for them that beleue and are baptized yet the Apostle doth confesse that concupiscence and luste hath of it selfe the nature of synne Of free wyll THE condition of man after the fall of Adam is suche that he can not turne and prepare hym selfe by his owne naturall strength and good workes to fayth and calling vpon God Wherefore we haue no power to do good workes pleasaunt and acceptable to God without the grace of God by Christe preuentyng vs that we may haue a good wyll workyng with vs when we haue that good wyll Of the iustification of man. WE are accompted righteous before God only for the merite of our Lord sauiour Iesus Christ by faith not for our owne workes or deseruynges Wherefore that we are iustified by fayth onely is a most wholesome doctrine and very full of comfort as more largely is expressed in the Homilie of iustification Of good workes ALbeit that good workes whiche are the fruites of fayth and folowe after iustification can not put away our sinnes and endure the seueritie of Gods iudgement yet are they pleasing and acceptable to God in Christe and do spring out necessarily of a true and liuely fayth in so muche that by them a lyuely fayth may be as euidently knowen as a tree discerned by the fruit Of workes before iustification WOrkes done before the grace of Christe and the inspiration of his spirite are not pleasaunt to God forasmuche as they spring not of fayth in Iesu Christ neither do they make men meete to receaue grace or as the schole aucthours saye deserue grace of congruitie yea rather for that they
