none other God but one He is Creator of all things In the beginning God created the heaven Gen. 1. 1. and the earth Through faith we understand that the Heb. 11. 3. world was ordained by the Word of God so that the things which we see are not made of things which did appeare 4. He is Governour of all things The eyes of the Lord in every place behold Prov. 15. 3. the evil and the good Yea and all the haires of your heads are Mat. 10. 30. numbred 5. Distinguished into the Father the Son and holy Ghost And Jesus when he was baptized came Mat. 3. 16. straight out of the water and loe the heavens were opened unto him and John saw the Spirit of God descending like a Dove and lighting upon him And loe a voice came from heaven saying Ven. 17. This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased For there are three that bare record in Joh. 5. 7. Heaven the Father the Word and the holy Ghost and these three are one The second Principle Q. What doest thou believe concerning man and concerning thine own self A. All men are wholly corrupted with sin through Adams fall and so are become slaves of Satan and guilty of eternal damnation 1. All men are corrupted with sin As it is written There is none righteous Rom. 3. 10. no not one 2. They are wholly corrupted Now the very God of peace sanctifie you 1 Thes 5. 23. throughout and I pray God that your whole spirit and soul and body may be kept blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ This I say therefore and testifie in the Eph. 4. 17. Lord that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk in the vanity of their minds Having their cogitations darkned and being Verse 18. strangers from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the hardness of their hearts When the Lord saw that the wickedness Gen. 6. 5. of man was great in the earth and all the imaginations of the thoughts of his heart were onely evil continually 3. Through Adams fall Wherefore as by one man sin entred into the world and death by sin and so death Rom. 5. 12. went over all men for so much as all men have sinned 4. And so are become slaves of Satan Wherein in times past ye walked according Eph. 2. 2. to the course of the world and after the Prince that ruleth in the air even the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience For as much then as the children were Heb. 2. 14. partakers of flesh and blood he also himself likewise took part with them that he might destroy through death him that had the power of death that is the devil In whom the God of this world hath 2 Chr. 4. 4. blinded the mindes that is of Infidels that the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ which is the Image of God should not shine unto them 5. And guilty of eternal damnation For as many as are of the works of the Gal. 3. 10. Law are under the curse for it is written Cursed is every man that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the Law to do them Likewise then as by the offence of one the fault came on all men to condemnation so by the justifying of one the benefit abounded towards all men to the justification of life The third Principle Q. VVhat means is there for thee to escape this damnable estate A. Jesus Christ the eternal Son of God being made man by his death upon the Cross and by his righteousness hath perfectly alone by himself accomplished all things that are needful for the salvation of man-kind 1. Christ Jesus the eternal Son of God And the Word was made flesh and dwelt Joh. 1. 14. among us and we saw the glory thereof as the glory of the onely begotten Son of the Father full of grace and truth 2. Being made man For he in no sort took the Angels but Heb. 2. 16. he took the seed of Abraham 3. By his death upon the Cross But he was wounded for our transgressions Isa 53. 5. he was broken for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him and with his stripes we are healed 4. And by his righteousness For as by one mans disobedience many Rom. 5. 19. were made sinners so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous For he hath made him to be sin for us 2 Cor. 5. 21. which knew no sin that we should be made the righteousness of God in him 5. Hath perfectly Wherefore he is able also perfectly to save them that come unto God by him Heb. 7. 25. seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them 6. Alone by himself Neither is there salvation in any other Act 4. 12. for among men there is given none other name under Heaven whereby we must be saved 7. Accomplished all things needful for the Salvation of mankind And he is the reconciliation for our 1 Joh. 2. 2. sins and not for ours onely but also for the sins of the whole World The fourth Principle Q. But how mayest thou be made partaker of Christ and his benefits A. A man of a contrite and humble spirit by Faith alone apprehending applying Christ with all his merits unto himself is justified before God and sanctified 1. A man of a contrite and humble spirit For thus saith he that is high and excellent Isa 57. 15. he that inhabiteth eternity whose name is the Holy One I dwell in the high and holy place with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit to revive the spirit of the humble and to give life to them that are of a contrite heart The sacrifices of God are a contrite spirit Ps 51. 17. a contrite and a broken heart O God thou wilt not despise 2. By faith alone As soon as Jesus heard that word spoken Mar. 5. 36. he said unto the Ruler of the Synagogue Be not afraid onely believe So Moses made a Serpent of brass and Num. 21. 9. set it up for a sign and when a Serpent had bitten any man then he looked to the Serpent of brass and lived And as Moses lifted up the Serpent in Joh. 3. 14. the wilderness so must the Son of man be lifted up That who soever believeth in him should Vers 15. not perish but have eternal life 3. Apprehending and applying Christ with all his merits unto himself But as many as received him to them he Joh. ● 12. gave power to be the sons of God to them that believe in his name And Jesus said unto them I am the bread of life he that Joh. 6. 35. cometh to me shall not hunger and he that believeth in me shall never thirst 4. Is justified before God
