him none other gods Also we shal feare hym as an almyghtye God and as a mercyful father we shall loue hym wyth all our hartes wyth all our soule wyth al our power and wyth all our strengthe and mynde and vpon hym muste staÌ„d al our hope for he is the father of light of whom al mankynd lyueth and hath euer lasting saluacion and al other perfect gifts pertaynyng eyther to the body or to the soul haue we from hym through Iesus Christe hys sonne and our Lord. Furthermore I beleue in Iesus Christ the sonne of the liuyng God whych is the very bryghtnes of his fathers glory and the very Image of his substaunce yea he is the only begotten soÌ„ne of the father come forth out of the mouthe of the most hyest God fyrst born before al creatures Through whom al thynges are created and in whoÌ„ we haue redempcion namely remission of synnes through hys bloude wyth the which he hath washed and clensed vs al from synne and hath also reconcyled vs agayne to hys moste holye and gloryous father that wer afore enemies to God For after the tyme that God had made man after hys owne image and similitude he sette hym into Paradyse that he shoulde eate of al the frutes of the garden of pleasure exceptyng hym only the tree of knowledge of good and euyl but man disobeyed the Lord hys God and transgressed hys commaundement Through the whych disobedyence and transgression of the godly commaundement death cursse came ouer al maÌ„kynde And when ther was no helpe nor comforte for man wherby he myght haue bene redemed or delyuered out of sathans power theÌ„ had God the mercyful father pyty on mankind and promised them a sede namely Iesu Christ hys only begotten son the whych should tread vpon the head of the Serpent and ouer come the diuel and restore them to lyfe agayne And lykewyse as God is rightuous in all hys wayes and holye in all hys workes and true in al hys wordes so hathe he kepte al hys promises trulye And as the tyme of hys promyse was fulfylled god let hys word descend into the wombe of the virgin Mary and by the workyng of the holye Gost became flesh as Ihon in his fyrst chapter of hys Gospel wytnesseth sayinge The word became flesh and dwelt amongest vs and we saw hys glorye as the glorye of the onelye begotten sonne of the father full of grace and veritye Also thys onlye begotten son of God by the power of the holy Goste became man is become lyke vnto vs in all thynges synne only except he hath suffered death for our sakes and hathe taken away Sathans power and restored lyfe in agayne yea he is made vnto vs wisdom and ryghtuousnes satisfaccion and redempcioÌ„ And lykewyse as he dyed for our syns and went downe into hel so is he rysen agayne the thyrd day froÌ„ death through the power of hys father for our ryghtuousnes iustificacion and saluacion And as he ofteÌ„ tymes shewed hym selfe after hys resurreccion vnto hys disciples so ascended he vnto heaueÌ„ in theyr presence and sytteth at the ryghte hand of the almyghty Father aboue al rule myght and dominion aboue all that may be named not only in this world but also in the world to come hath subdued al thynges vnder hys fete In summa he is a Lord aboue al Lords and a king aboue al kings yea he is an almyghtye God wyth hys father And neuerthelesse he is also our onli aduocate and mediatour our only hye prieste the sacrifice that he hathe done once for all for our sins abideth of valure for euermore Furthermore lykewyse as Christe oure Lord is ascended vp into heauen and there sytteth vpon the ryght hand of God his father euen so shal he come againe froÌ„ heauen wyth the dominion of hys father and with thousandes of Aungels for to geue euerye man reward after hys workes yea euen to iudge the quycke and the dead I beleue also in the holy Gost God wyth the father the sonne whych holye Gost is a teacher of all Christen people and he doth cloth garnyshe them wyth hys giftes and geueth euery one the measure of faith after his own holy wil and keepeth them vnmoueable in one faithe for he is a ruler of the Christian congregacioÌ„ He is also the anointmeÌ„t wher with all the Christian are anoynted and of that behalfe are called the anoynted of the Lorde So is this holye Ghoste geuen vnto the Christiane as an earnest of theyr inheritaunce to the redempcion and they agayne be hys owne to the prayse of his glory to be briefe it is vnpossible wythoute thys holye holy Gost to know God ryghtly or wyth al the hole harte to beleue vpon hym or to call vpon him as a father and therfore doth god poure thys hys holy spirit vpon hys childreÌ„ wherby they may ryghtly knowe hym and ryghtly beleue in hym and as a ryghte father call vpon him This is my beliefe to the father the sonne and the holy Gost whych thre persons I knoledge to be God whose seate is heauen and the earth is a bench for hys feete yea the whych is an euerlastynge an almyghty a ryghtuous and a most mercyful God the whych alone wyl be worshipped and serued for he alone can healpe vs whych he doth for hys names sake and not for our rightuousnes sake Furthermore as I haue said that al they that do beleue ar ioyned together through the holy gost knit in vnity so is ther a Christian church the whych is buylded of lyuing stones whych church is the house of God and the house of God is the congregacion of God and the congregacion of God is the body of Christ and seyng that al right christians are one bodye in the whyche they all through one spirit are baptised so must ther be a communion of Sayntes namely that all sayntes or true beleuers are also ioyned together in vnity as the members of one body And in thys communion of Sayntes is remissyon of syns and that wythoute it is no synne forgiuen nor any hope of saluacion Yea lyke as it is vnpossible that a member can lyue that is not in the bodye so is it vnpossible that any maÌ„ may lyue in hys soul and can be released out of death by remyssion of synne the whyche is not a member of the body of Christ for Christ hath reconcyled vs al vnto God hys father in one bodye and therfore must al they stande in varience that are no members of thys bodye of the which Christ is the head to the which he giueth saluacion Ther shal be also a generall resurreccioÌ„ of the flesh namely that all they that are dead shal ryse a gayne some to euer lastyng lyfe and some to euerlasting dampnacion and they that shal liue and remaine vpon the earth vntyl the commyng of oure Lord Iesu Christ they shall be chaunged in the twynklyng of an eye at the tyme of

the last trumpet The trumpet saith Paule shal blow and the dead shall ryse vncorruptible and we shal be chaunged for thys corruptyble body muste put on vncorrupcion and thys mortal body must put on immortality At the last is ther also an euerlastynge lyfe whyche al they shall receyue that beleue on Iesus Christ and stedfastlye abyde in good workes sekyng prayse honour and immortality in the lyfe to come Thys is the suÌ„me of my fayth and belefe through the whyche fayth al the ryghtuous lyue and wythoute the which beliefe no man may please God Therefore the euerlastynge God be blessed that oute of hys vnmeasurable mercye and grace hath giuen me thys faythe throughe Iesus Christ our Lord. Now foloweth my fayth and opinion of the sacramental token of baptisme Baptysme is a sacramentall token the whyche is gyuen vs of Christe and is at the fyrst an entryng into the Christian congregacion as Paule sayeth we are baptised in one spirite to be one body i. Cor. xii Secondarely Baptysme is a fountayne of regeneracioÌ„ as Paul witnesseth Tit. iii. saying that Christ hath saued vs bi the fouÌ„teine of the newe byrthe and renuing of the holy ghost not that the water doth saue vs for nothyng can saue vs but only God Esa xliii but seynge that our Lord Iesu Christ hath spoken that he that beleueth is baptysed shall be saued Marc. xvi And goddes word is verity and truth Ihon. xvii And his promyses may not fayle Psal cxlvii Therfore must baptyme nedes brynge saluation vnto them that in beleue are baptysed not for the workes sake but for gods word and promyses Deu. viii Thirdly baptime is a couenant of a good conscyence to God first of Pete iii. namely that he that in beleue is baptysed byndeth hym self or maketh a couenaunt with god that from thenceforth he wil liue after his wil. And on this couenauntes behalfe whiche muste be done oute of a cleane faythfull heart hath the baptyme power and not for the water sake wherewith the filthinesse of the flesh is washed away but withoute it be that the hearts of them that are baptised be cleansed Actes xv Through goddes word Ihon. xv The water can not cleanse them wherwyth it is also proued that baptysme wythoute faythe maye in no wyse bee alowed Foorthelye baptysme sygnyfyeth an offerynge of the fleshe and a resurreccion into a newe lyfe as we haue to the Romaynes vi Knowe ye not saythe Saynte Paule that all we whyche are baptysed in the name of Iesu Christ are baptysed to die wyth hym therfore are we buried wyth him by baptysme for to dye that lykewyse as Christ was raised vp froÌ„ death to lyfe by the glory of the father eueÌ„ so we shuld walke in a newe lyfe Thys is nowe shortly expressed what baptisme is and what it signifyeth But for asmuch as all the former scriptures are spoken of them onlye that be of yeres of discression before they receiue the faythe of Christ it is not altering of the institucion word of Christ to baptise the innocents in faÌ„tes For as in circumcisioÌ„ of the old law the faith of the parents sufficed to make the child one of the chosen people of God not wythstanding that the circumcision of the flesh is not circumcision as Paul writeth to the Ro. ii but the circumcision of the hert euen so the baptisme of our infants not withstandinge that the washynge of the bodye in water is not baptysme but the washynge of the soule in the bloude of Christe by faythe yet shall the faythe of the parentes be accepted of God And theyr chyldren made members of the churche of Christ thereby And also I beleue that god dothe moue the heartes of the infantes that be hys wyth the holye ghost If any require witnesses of the scripture for thys assercyon that chyldrene or infantes be made members of the church of Christe by the faythe of they re parentes Lette hym reade and consyder well the story of Sampson and Samuel wyth other lyke storyes of the old testameÌ„t wherin may easely be perceyued how God dyd then accept the children for the parents fayth Let hym consyder also the storyes of the Gospel wherin appeareth how Christ wold not haue the children kept from hym wheÌ„ theyr parentes brought theÌ„ to hym that he might lay hys hand vpon them and how certayne chyldren were cured and healed of diseases euen for the fayth that was found in theyr parentes And last of al it is euydent both in the Actes of the Apostles and in the Epystles of certaine of them that when certaine men receiued the Gospell both they theyr whole houshold were baptysed Where it is not to be thought that the infantes wer reiected because they could not vnderstaÌ„d the Apostles preachyng For S. Paule writing to the Corinthians sayd .i. Corin. vii As coÌ„cernyng the chyldren begotten betwene an Heathen man and a faithful woman or betwene a Heathenish woman and a faithful man the children are cleane by reason that one of his parentes is faithful And what other thing shuld he meane thereby but that God accepteth those children for members of his church whoÌ„ the faithfull parentes do willingly bring to the fountain of regeneracion therto receiue the signe of the euerlasting couenant betwene God and vs. Thys is with the shortest my faythe and opinion of baptysme Nowe foloweth lykewyse my fayth and opinion of the supper of the Lord The supper of the Lorde is a memoryall token of the sufferinge and deathe of Iesu Christ is instituted of Christ for this cause that the faythfull congregacyon of Iesu Christ shulde come together for to shew the deathe of Iesu Christe and hys benefytes lauddynge and thankynge hym magnyfyinge hys holye name and then also eate of thys breade and dryncke of thys wyne to a remembraunce that Christ hathe geuen hys body and shed his bloud for vs. Math. xxvi And because that it is a comen vse that a token of remembraunce hath the name of the thinge that is remembred by it Therefore hath Christ called the breade his bodye and the wyne hys bloud not that hys substance is in the breade and wyne but that we shuld remember him therby Likewise as the Easter lambe was called the passynge by and yet was it not in it self the very passyng by seinge nowe that the Easter lambe hath the name of the thynge that the Israelytes remembred by it and wherby they might euerlastinglye keepe in remembraunce the benefites of God right conuenient is it that Christ hath called the bread his body and the wine his bloude because that we shuld remember therby his death and passion yea the only sacrifice of his body which he hath suffered to be brokeÌ„ and his bloud to be shed for vs. Neuertheles how be it that the materiall body of Christ is not in the breade nor his bloude in the wine yet neuertheles is the supper of the Lord a partaking but spiritually of the
