in_o some_o or_o other_o of_o the_o follow_a piece_n 4._o here_o we_o may_v read_v what_o we_o be_v to_o believe_v concern_v the_o first_o article_n of_o all_o of_o our_o creed_n god_n the_o father_n that_o he_o be_v one_o almighty_a invisible_a the_o creator_n and_o maker_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o be_v omniscient_a immense_a neither_o to_o be_v comprehend_v within_o any_o bound_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o to_o be_v perfect_o conceive_v by_o we_o that_o his_o providence_n be_v over_o all_o thing_n and_o that_o we_o can_v none_o of_o we_o flee_v from_o he_o or_o escape_v his_o knowledge_n that_o we_o be_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o to_o fear_v he_o to_o love_v he_o and_o fear_v he_o to_o abstain_v from_o all_o evil._n 5._o if_o from_o thence_o we_o go_v on_o to_o the_o next_o person_n of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n here_o we_o shall_v find_v all_o that_o either_o our_o creed_n teach_v we_o to_o profess_v concern_v he_o or_o that_o any_o christian_a need_n to_o believe_v that_o he_o exist_v not_o only_o before_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n but_o from_o all_o eternity_n that_o he_o be_v not_o only_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o be_v himself_o also_o god_n that_o in_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n he_o take_v upon_o he_o our_o nature_n and_o become_v man_n be_v bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v crucify_v under_o pontius_n pilate_n that_o he_o suffer_v for_o our_o salvation_n and_o be_v raise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a not_o only_o by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n but_o by_o his_o own_o also_o that_o he_o be_v our_o highpriest_n and_o protector_n now_o and_o shall_v come_v again_o at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n to_o judge_v the_o whole_a race_n of_o mankind_n that_o there_o be_v no_o come_n unto_o god_n but_o by_o he_o insomuch_o that_o even_o the_o ancient_a father_n who_o die_v before_o his_o appear_v be_v yet_o save_v by_o the_o same_o mean_n that_o we_o be_v now_o 6._o as_o for_o what_o concern_v the_o holy_a spirit_n the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o glorious_a godhead_n he_o be_v here_o set_v out_o to_o we_o not_o only_o as_o a_o person_n but_o as_o distinct_a from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o to_o show_v what_o kind_n of_o spirit_n he_o be_v we_o may_v here_o see_v he_o join_v together_o in_o the_o same_o worship_n with_o the_o father_n and_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ._n 7._o and_o now_o i_o be_o mention_v the_o holy_a spirit_n let_v i_o add_v that_o we_o may_v here_o see_v what_o be_v needful_a to_o be_v know_v concern_v all_o the_o other_o spirit_n of_o a_o inferior_a nature_n how_o the_o holy_a angel_n minister_v unto_o we_o but_o especial_o then_o when_o we_o have_v most_o need_n of_o they_o at_o the_o time_n of_o our_o death_n and_o that_o though_o the_o devil_n may_v attack_v we_o and_o use_v all_o his_o art_n to_o draw_v we_o away_o from_o our_o duty_n yet_o it_o must_v be_v our_o own_o fault_n if_o we_o be_v overcome_v by_o he_o and_o therefore_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v afraid_a of_o he_o 8._o but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o creed_n and_o the_o article_n of_o it_o here_o we_o may_v far_o see_v both_o what_o a_o great_a obligation_n there_o lie_v upon_o we_o to_o keep_v up_o a_o communion_n of_o saint_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n on_o earth_n and_o what_o be_v that_o true_a fellowship_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v with_o those_o who_o be_v go_v before_o we_o to_o heaven_n that_o it_o consist_v not_o in_o the_o worship_n of_o any_o though_o never_o so_o glorious_o exalt_v by_o god_n but_o in_o love_n and_o remembrance_n in_o thanksgiving_n to_o god_n for_o their_o excellency_n and_o in_o our_o prayer_n to_o he_o join_v with_o hearty_a endeavour_n of_o our_o own_o to_o imitate_v their_o perfection_n 9_o and_o whilst_o we_o do_v this_o we_o be_v here_o assure_v of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n too_o through_o the_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o jesus_n christ._n and_o that_o not_o only_o of_o those_o which_o we_o commit_v before_o our_o baptism_n but_o of_o all_o such_o as_o we_o shall_v chance_v to_o fall_v into_o after_o if_o we_o true_o repent_v of_o they_o 10._o as_o for_o the_o next_o point_n the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n it_o be_v not_o only_o assert_v but_o at_o large_a prove_v too_o in_o the_o follow_a discourse_n there_o we_o may_v see_v not_o only_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o future_a resurrection_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v raise_v in_o the_o very_a same_o body_n in_o which_o we_o go_v down_o into_o the_o grave_a and_o that_o be_v raise_v we_o shall_v be_v judge_v by_o christ_n according_a to_o our_o work_n and_o be_v either_o unspeakable_o reward_v or_o exceed_o punish_v and_o that_o to_o all_o eternity_n 11._o if_o from_o the_o article_n of_o our_o creed_n we_o go_v on_o to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o church_n here_o we_o have_v set_v out_o to_o we_o the_o great_a benefit_n of_o our_o baptism_n
