in_o the_o sight_n of_o they_o all_o carry_v he_o through_o the_o air_n into_o heaven_n where_o he_o now_o sit_v to_o prepare_v a_o place_n for_o we_o and_o intercede_v to_o god_n for_o all_o faithful_a penitent_a sinner_n i_o believe_v he_o sit_v at_o god_n right_a hand_n that_o be_v that_o he_o be_v there_o exalt_v to_o the_o great_a power_n and_o glory_n not_o that_o god_n have_v hand_n as_o we_o have_v for_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o a_o spirit_n have_v no_o hand_n as_o we_o have_v but_o as_o with_o we_o the_o right_a hand_n be_v a_o place_n of_o honour_n so_o i_o be_o full_o persuade_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v exalt_v in_o heaven_n to_o the_o great_a honour_n power_n and_o glory_n and_o there_o plead_v and_o mediate_v with_o god_n for_o all_o those_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o repent_v of_o their_o disobedience_n and_o live_v a_o new_a and_o christian_a life_n and_o thus_o i_o believe_v that_o he_o ascend_v in_o heaven_n and_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n vii_o article_n from_o thence_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a the_o meaning_n be_v i_o do_v free_o and_o full_o assent_v to_o this_o as_o a_o undoubted_a truth_n that_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n shall_v certain_o come_v again_o with_o power_n and_o great_a glory_n from_o the_o same_o heaven_n into_o which_o he_o ascend_v attend_v by_o his_o holy_a angel_n to_o judge_v all_o mankind_n according_a as_o they_o have_v live_v here_o that_o every_o eye_n shall_v see_v he_o and_o they_o that_o pierce_v his_o hand_n and_o foot_n shall_v behold_v his_o majesty_n his_o terror_n and_o his_o glory_n i_o believe_v that_o the_o world_n be_v dissolve_v and_o the_o earth_n and_o all_o thing_n thereon_o be_v burn_v up_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v sit_v in_o the_o air_n in_o a_o glorious_a throne_n and_o shall_v judge_v the_o quick_a that_o be_v all_o those_o that_o shall_v be_v alive_a at_o his_o come_v and_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v all_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a before_o since_o the_o world_n begin_v that_o the_o record_n of_o their_o conscience_n shall_v be_v lay_v open_a that_o be_v all_o that_o ever_o they_o think_v or_o speak_v or_o do_v shall_v be_v bring_v to_o their_o memory_n i_o believe_v firm_o that_o he_o will_v judge_v they_o righteous_o and_o they_o that_o have_v live_v unho_o irreligious_o and_o die_v impenitent_o he_o shall_v sentence_v to_o eternal_a darkness_n but_o they_o that_o have_v believe_v in_o he_o repent_v of_o and_o reform_v their_o sin_n and_o live_v holy_a and_o good_a life_n he_o shall_v adjudge_v to_o dwell_v with_o he_o in_o heaven_n and_o happiness_n for_o ever_o and_o thus_o i_o believe_v he_o shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a viii_o article_n i_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o meaning_n be_v i_o firm_o believe_v that_o the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o adorable_a trinity_n the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o holy_a spirit_n be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n i_o believe_v he_o to_o be_v a_o person_n distinct_a from_o both_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n eternal_o proceed_v from_o both_o and_o equal_o send_v by_o both_o and_o joint_a author_n with_o both_o of_o our_o salvation_n that_o though_o these_o be_v three_o person_n yet_o be_v they_o but_o one_o god_n and_o though_o this_o can_v be_v full_o understand_v in_o this_o world_n yet_o i_o believe_v it_o firm_o i_o believe_v that_o as_o god_n the_o father_n create_v i_o and_o god_n the_o son_n redeem_v i_o so_o this_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o holy_a spirit_n sanctify_v i_o offers_z i_o his_o grace_n and_o assistance_n to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v my_o comforter_n and_o always_o it_o be_v he_o that_o put_v into_o my_o mind_n good_a desire_n and_o pious_a purpose_n so_o that_o i_o believe_v entire_o that_o he_o be_v not_o only_o of_o perfect_a holiness_n in_o himself_o but_o also_o that_o he_o be_v the_o immediate_a cause_n of_o all_o holiness_n in_o we_o that_o by_o he_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n be_v enable_v to_o do_v all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n which_o by_o the_o force_n of_o nature_n they_o can_v do_v that_o it_o be_v he_o who_o enlighten_v our_o understanding_n sanctify_v our_o will_n order_n and_o command_v our_o affection_n that_o it_o be_v by_o his_o assistance_n impart_v to_o we_o that_o we_o speak_v or_o do_v any_o thing_n of_o our_o duty_n thus_o i_o believe_v god_n the_o father_n god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n not_o to_o be_v three_o god_n but_o three_o person_n and_o but_o one_o god_n and_o though_o i_o shall_v never_o in_o this_o life_n full_o comprehend_v this_o mystery_n of_o the_o trinity_n yet_o i_o firm_o believe_v it_o and_o thus_o i_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a ghost_n ix_o article_n i_o believe_v in_o the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n the_o communion_n of_o saint_n the_o meaning_n be_v i_o do_v free_o profess_v to_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v by_o the_o preach_a of_o the_o apostle_n gather_v unto_o himself_o a_o church_n consist_v of_o thousand_o of_o beliving_a person_n to_o which_o he_o daily_o add_v such_o as_o shall_v be_v save_v and_o will_v successive_o and_o daily_o add_v to_o the_o same_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n that_o this_o catholic_n that_o be_v universal_a church_n be_v the_o corporation_n or_o general_a family_n of_o all_o true_a believer_n or_o that_o body_n or_o society_n of_o person_n that_o profess_v christ_n and_o his_o gospel_n and_o be_v govern_v and_o continue_v under_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n lawful_o call_v to_o that_o office_n by_o who_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n be_v due_o preach_v and_o administer_v under_o christ_n their_o head_n i_o firm_o believe_v this_o church_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v one_o holy_a and_o catholic_n one_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o faith_n one_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n one_o in_o respect_n of_o be_v guide_v and_o direct_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n one_o in_o respect_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o head_n christ_n jesus_n and_o one_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o same_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o immortality_n holy_a in_o respect_n of_o its_o head_n the_o holy_a jesus_n holy_a by_o baptismal_a dedication_n holy_a in_o respect_n of_o its_o design_n and_o end_n holy_a in_o

to_o catholic_n in_o respect_n of_o time_n that_o be_v it_o shall_v universal_o be_v continue_v to_o all_o age_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n catholic_n or_o universal_a because_o it_o be_v make_v up_o of_o all_o the_o particular_a church_n in_o the_o world_n catholic_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o universal_a war_n which_o it_o always_o be_v to_o hold_v against_o all_o its_o ghostly_a enemy_n catholic_n or_o universal_a in_o this_o sense_n that_o it_o be_v not_o limit_v or_o confine_v to_o one_o nation_n as_o the_o church_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v but_o by_o the_o command_n and_o appointment_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v spread_v abroad_o and_o gather_v from_o all_o nation_n under_o heaven_n i_o believe_v that_o of_o this_o catholic_n church_n part_n be_v on_o earth_n and_o part_n in_o heaven_n that_o be_v the_o saint_n depart_v be_v the_o triumphant_a part_n of_o the_o church_n and_o all_o true_a believer_n lover_n and_o obeyer_n of_o jesus_n be_v the_o church_n militant_a and_o as_o i_o ever_o desire_v to_o be_v a_o member_n of_o this_o holy_a catholic_n church_n so_o i_o believe_v there_o be_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v a_o communion_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o it_o that_o be_v a_o society_n or_o fellowship_n one_o with_o another_o in_o all_o holy_a thing_n as_o all_o saint_n on_o earth_n or_o all_o true_a believer_n have_v in_o common_a one_o god_n one_o christ_n one_o holy_a spirit_n one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n so_o i_o believe_v they_o ever_o do_v and_o ought_v to_o keep_v up_o a_o holy_a fellowship_n or_o society_n with_o each_o other_o in_o all_o the_o common_a christian_a office_n and_o duty_n in_o faith_n in_o profess_v the_o gospel_n in_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o charity_n and_o do_v good_a to_o each_o

holy_a angel_n above_o in_o heaven_n we_o pray_v also_o in_o this_o petition_n that_o we_o may_v be_v enable_v not_o only_o to_o do_v his_o will_n but_o that_o we_o may_v submit_v to_o his_o holy_a
