of every trée of the Garden excepting one Q. What is the forbidden fruite A. First that God placed Adam in Paradise that is proved out of the second Chapter of Genesis at the fiftéenth verse And the Lord God tooke the man and put him into the garden of Eden to dresse it and to keepe it Secondly that God placed Eve in Paradise also that is proved because shée was Adams wife and man and wife are to live together and it is sayd in the third Chapter of Genesis and the eight verse that she as well as Adam heard the voyce of the Lord walking in the Garden Thirdly that God gave them liberty to eate of every trée in the Garden save one that is proved out of the second of Genesis the sixtéenth and seventéenth verses And the Lord God commanded the man saying Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eate but of the tree of knowledge of good and evill thou shalt not eate thereof for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely dye This being spoken to the man concernes the woman also for we may not thinke that the woman had any more liberty for her eating than the man for his Q. If God placed them in Paradise and gave them libertie to eate of every tree of the garden excepting one what of this A. They did eate of this trée and that was their sinne Q. How is that proved A. First that they did eate of that trée is plainely set downe in the third Chapter of Genesis at the sixt verse And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was pleasant to the eye and a tree to be desired to make one wise she tooke of the fruite thereof and did eate and gave also unto her husband with her and he did eate Secondly that this was their sinne that is plaine because it was contrary to the Commandement which God gave them Q. What is that to us if Adam and Eve sinned A. Yes their sinne is our sinne and their fall is our fall Q. How is that proved A. Out of the fift Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans at the twelfth verse By one man sinne entred into the world and death by sinne and so death passed upon all men for that all have sinned The Apostle saith that all have sinned now it cannot be truely sayd of any sinne that all young and old without exception sinned but onely of that sinne which Adam and Eve committed in eating of the forbidden fruite Q. But doe we partake with Adam and Eve onely in this sinne and not in other A. From this first sinne which they committed procéedes naturall corruption both in them and us which naturall corruption consists not onely in the want of holinesse and righteousnesse which God bestowed upon us in our first creation but also in an inclination to all evill and a backwardnesse to every thing that is good and this naturall corruption is the cause of all other sinnes Q. How is this proved that from that first sinne proceedes naturall corruption and from that other particular sinnes A. Because that the Apostle saith in the fift Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans the ninetéenth verse that By Adams disobedience we were made sinners We did not onely sinne in Adam but by that sinne or disobedience we are become sinners or sinfull Q. What danger followes upon this that God gives us a Law to keepe and we are so sinfull that we cannot keepe it A. The curse of God Q. How is that proved A. Because it is sayd in the seven and twentieth Chapter of Deuteronomie and the last verse Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this Law to doe them Q. Doth this curse of God concerne us onely so long as we live A. No but the curse of God is upon us in death and after death also Q. How is that proved A. Because the Apostle saith in the sixt Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans the last verse that the wages of sinne is death not onely temporall death which is the parting of the soule and the body but also eternall death which followeth after and this is plaine because in the same place he speakes of eternall life and brings it in as a contrary to death The wages of sinne is death but the gift of God is eternall life The second part Q. Is there any meanes to escape this curse A. Yes by Iesus Christ Q. How is that proved A. Because in the Epistle to the Galathians the third Chapter the thirtéenth verse the Apostle saith thus Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the Law being made a curse for us Q. Who is Jesus Christ A. He is the onely Sonne of God Q. How is that proved A. Because in the third Chapter of S. Johns Gospell at the sixtéenth vers Iesus Christ speaks thus of himself God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son Q. Is Jesus Christ onely God A. No he is both God and man Q. How is that proved A. Because in the third of Saint Johns Gospell at the thirtéenth and fourtéenth verses and in many other places Iesus Christ cals himselfe the Sonne of man Q. How did he being God become man A. He tooke flesh of the blessed Virgin Marie Q. How is that proved A. Because Mary is called the mother of Iesus Christ and the Angell sayd of her That she shall bring forth a Son and call his Name Iesus in the first of Matthew the eightéenth and the one and twentieth verses Q. What hath Jesus Christ done for us A. He dyed for our sinnes and fulfilled the whole Law Q. How is that proved A. First he dyed for our sinnes so saith the Apostle in the fourth Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans and the last verse and because his death had béene to little purpose unlesse he had risen againe from the dead therefore he joynes his resurrection with his death He was delivered for our offences and was raised againe for our justification Secondly that he fulfilled the whole Law that may be proved by the comparison which the Apostle makes betwéene Adam and Christ in the fift chapter of that Epistle to the Romans and the ninetéenth verse As by one mans disobedience many were made sinners so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous Where by the disobedience of Adam we must understand that which hee did contrary to the commandement and therefore by the obedience of Christ we must understand that which he did according to the Commandement Q. How do you lay hold upon Christ A. By a lively faith Q. How is that proved A. Because in the Epistle to the Ephesians the third chapter and the seventeenth verse Christ is sayd to dwell in our hearts by faith Q. Rehearse the articles of your faith A. I beléeve in God the Father Almightie c. Q. What is faith A. A perswasion of my
