christian_a he_o who_o have_v be_v baptize_v believe_v the_o true_a faith_n of_o christ_n and_o live_v according_o 11._o how_o shall_v we_o learn_v to_o do_v this_o by_o the_o christian_a doctrine_n that_o be_v by_o that_o doctrine_n which_o christ_n jesus_n come_v to_o teach_v and_o preach_v unto_o the_o world_n 12._o where_o be_v this_o doctrine_n contain_v it_o be_v contain_v in_o god_n his_o holy_a word_n which_o be_v deliver_v to_o we_o at_o large_a partly_o by_o scripture_n and_o partly_o by_o tradition_n of_o the_o holy_a catholic_a church_n 13._o how_o many_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o principal_a head_n of_o the_o christian_a doctrine_n they_o may_v be_v reduce_v to_o six_o to_o wit_v the_o creed_n the_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la the_o ten_o commandment_n the_o seven_o sacrament_n prayer_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o mass_n 14._o wherefore_o be_v these_o six_o the_o principal_a head_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n because_o whereas_o there_o be_v principal_o four_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n that_o be_v faith_n which_o give_v we_o light_n to_o believe_v well_o hope_v which_o give_v we_o confidence_n to_o demand_v well_o charity_n which_o give_v we_o strength_n to_o do_v well_o and_o god_n his_o actual_a assistant_n grace_n which_o be_v the_o most_o necessary_a of_o all_o for_o without_o it_o we_o can_v get_v the_o other_o three_o nor_o make_v the_o least_o progress_n in_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n now_o the_o creed_n teach_v we_o what_o belong_v to_o faith_n the_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la what_o belong_v to_o hope_v the_o ten_o commandment_n what_o belong_v to_o charity_n and_o the_o three_o last_o part_n the_o sacrament_n prayer_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o mass_n be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o to_o obtain_v god_n his_o actual_a assistant_n grace_n 15._o why_o do_v you_o account_v the_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la a_o distinct_a part_n from_o the_o rest_n see_v that_o it_o be_v include_v in_o prayer_n which_o you_o number_n as_o make_v one_o principal_a part_n by_o itself_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v because_o the_o pater_fw-la noster_fw-la be_v not_o only_o actual_o a_o prayer_n itself_o but_o it_o be_v also_o a_o general_a instruction_n whereby_o we_o be_v teach_v how_o to_o pray_v and_o what_o to_o demand_v now_o as_o it_o be_v actual_o a_o prayer_n itself_o it_o belong_v to_o prayer_n which_o we_o have_v reckon_v for_o the_o five_o part_n of_o the_o christian_a doctrine_n but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o instruction_n it_o make_v a_o part_n by_o itself_o because_o to_o instruct_v be_v a_o quality_n which_o be_v not_o essential_a to_o actual_a pray_n and_o so_o it_o belong_v proper_o to_o hope_n which_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o actual_a prayer_n and_o be_v practise_v by_o know_v what_o and_o how_o we_o be_v to_o demand_v 16._o why_o do_v you_o number_v but_o four_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n since_o that_o no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v without_o inherent_a justice_n or_o sanctify_a grace_n which_o be_v a_o distinct_a thing_n from_o god_n his_o actual_a assistant_n grace_n and_o therefore_o in_o all_o there_o be_v five_o thing_n necessary_a the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v because_o sanctify_a grace_n be_v either_o charity_n itself_o or_o at_o least_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o can_v be_v separate_v from_o charity_n and_o therefore_o whosoever_o have_v charity_n may_v be_v assure_v that_o he_o have_v sanctify_v grace_n and_o the_o mean_n to_o obtain_v one_o do_v serve_v for_o both_o 17._o what_o be_v the_o visible_a sign_n or_o badge_n of_o a_o christian_a the_o sign_n of_o the_o holy_a cross_n accompany_v with_o these_o word_n in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 18._o wherefore_o be_v this_o the_o badge_n of_o a_o christian_a because_o by_o make_v this_o holy_a sign_n with_o these_o word_n we_o profess_v the_o three_o chief_a mystery_n of_o our_o christian_a faith_n which_o be_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o unity_n and_o trinity_n of_o god_n the_o mystery_n of_o the_o incarnation_n and_o the_o mystery_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n his_o sacred_a passion_n 19_o why_o be_v the_o mystery_n of_o the_o unity_n and_o trinity_n of_o god_n say_v to_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n because_o by_o say_v in_o the_o name_n and_o not_o name_n we_o declare_v the_o unity_n of_o one_o sole_a essence_n power_n and_o divinity_n in_o one_o only_a god_n and_o by_o name_v the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n we_o plain_o manifest_v the_o three_o distinct_a person_n of_o the_o most_o bless_a trinity_n 20._o why_o be_v the_o other_o two_o mystery_n of_o the_o incarnation_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n say_v to_o be_v include_v in_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n because_o by_o put_v our_o hand_n from_o the_o head_n under_o the_o breast_n we_o profess_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o have_v descend_v from_o heaven_n to_o become_v incarnate_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o most_o bless_a virgin_n and_o by_o put_v our_o hand_n from_o the_o left_a shoulder_n to_o the_o right_n we_o declare_v how_o he_o redeem_v we_o by_o die_v upon_o the_o cross_n in_o form_n whereof_o we_o make_v this_o holy_a sign_n 21._o wherefore_o have_v it_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o all_o true_a christian_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o their_o chief_a action_n to_o make_v so_o frequent_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o holy_a cross_n pronounce_v the_o former_a word_n for_o diverse_a good_a reason_n and_o first_o thereby_o to_o consecrate_v their_o action_n unto_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o most_o bless_a trinity_n second_o to_o crave_v in_o all_o their_o action_n god_n his_o divine_a assistance_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o sacred_a death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n three_o to_o make_v a_o brief_a profession_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n the_o chief_a mystery_n whereof_o we_o see_v be_v so_o lively_o express_v under_o this_o sign_n four_o to_o declare_v thereby_o that_o they_o fight_v under_o this_o sign_n as_o under_o christ_n his_o standard_n and_o so_o like_o faithful_a soldier_n to_o distinguish_v themselves_o from_o pagan_n turk_n jew_n and_o all_o other_o his_o enemy_n five_o to_o arm_v ourselves_o by_o it_o against_o the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o temptation_n for_o that_o he_o do_v fear_n and_o fly_v this_o sign_n as_o the_o malefactor_n do_v fear_v the_o minister_n and_o sharp_a instrument_n of_o justice_n last_o by_o the_o help_n of_o this_o holy_a sign_n man_n do_v most_o frequent_o escape_v many_o both_o corporal_a and_o spiritual_a danger_n as_o innumerable_a most_o authentic_a history_n and_o good_a author_n declare_v now_o we_o make_v this_o sign_n so_o frequent_o because_o faith_n be_v the_o foundation_n and_o groundwork_n of_o christianity_n and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o make_v a_o frequent_a profession_n of_o it_o lesson_n xii_o of_o faith_n 1._o why_o be_v faith_n the_o first_o foundation_n and_o groundwork_n of_o christianity_n because_o by_o natural_a knowledge_n we_o can_v come_v to_o know_v the_o mean_n which_o be_v prescribe_v for_o our_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_n of_o a_o supernatural_a help_n which_o be_v faith_n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n 2._o what_o then_o be_v faith_n faith_n be_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o a_o light_n whereby_o we_o do_v firm_o and_o without_o doubt_v believe_v all_o that_o which_o be_v propose_v to_o we_o by_o the_o catholic_a church_n to_o be_v believe_v not_o because_o we_o see_v it_o but_o because_o it_o be_v reveal_v by_o god_n who_o can_v speak_v untruth_n so_o that_o to_o a_o act_n of_o faith_n necessary_a for_o salvation_n two_o thing_n be_v require_v first_o in_o regard_n of_o god_n that_o it_o be_v a_o object_n reveal_v by_o he_o and_o propose_v to_o we_o by_o the_o church_n as_o such_o second_o in_o regard_n of_o man_n that_o he_o give_v a_o firm_a assent_n to_o it_o 3._o be_v there_o no_o more_o require_v to_o a_o act_n of_o faith_n no_o more_o be_v require_v to_o a_o inward_a act_n of_o faith_n yet_o to_o practice_v this_o virtue_n perfect_o we_o be_v some_o time_n oblige_v to_o declare_v our_o belief_n by_o a_o outward_a act_n when_o occasion_n require_v it_o for_o man_n be_v compose_v of_o body_n and_o soul_n he_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v god_n his_o veracitie_n by_o both_o these_o part_n by_o his_o soul_n in_o believe_v and_o by_o his_o body_n in_o profess_v with_o his_o mouth_n what_o he_o believe_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v never_o lawful_a to_o dissemble_v our_o faith_n by_o profess_v one_o thing_n and_o believe_v a_o other_o for_o whosoever_o deny_v jesus_n christ_n before_o man_n will_v be_v deny_v by_o he_o before_o his_o father_n 4._o why_o be_v faith_n call_v a_o gift_n of_o god_n because_o
divine_a belief_n surpass_v the_o force_n of_o our_o nature_n so_o that_o we_o can_v any_o way_n deserve_v it_o in_o so_o much_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v inspire_v it_o into_o we_o through_o his_o own_o mere_a bounty_n and_o it_o be_v the_o first_o theological_a gift_n of_o god_n by_o which_o we_o be_v dispose_v by_o little_a and_o little_a to_o obtain_v the_o rest_n 5._o why_o be_v it_o call_v a_o light_n because_o it_o enlighten_v our_o understanding_n by_o make_v we_o believe_v the_o holy_a mystery_n of_o our_o christian_a faith_n deliver_v to_o we_o by_o the_o church_n 6._o why_o do_v you_o say_v deliver_v to_o we_o by_o the_o church_n because_o as_o i_o have_v observe_v before_o we_o can_v have_v catholic_a faith_n but_o by_o the_o instruction_n of_o the_o church_n which_o propose_v to_o we_o those_o truth_n which_o god_n do_v reveal_v to_o his_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o shall_v communicate_v they_o to_o other_o who_o be_v to_o succeed_v to_o themselves_o in_o the_o church_n and_o they_o again_o to_o other_o and_o so_o till_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 7._o who_o be_v those_o that_o succeed_v to_o the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n they_o be_v the_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n who_o the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n leave_v behind_o they_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o doctrine_n which_o they_o themselves_o have_v teach_v and_o preach_v before_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v what_o the_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n teach_v because_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o the_o catholic_a church_n deliver_v to_o we_o that_o same_o doctrine_n which_o the_o apostle_n deliver_v to_o she_o 8._o how_o be_v we_o sure_a of_o this_o first_o because_o our_o saviour_n himself_o do_v assure_v we_o so_o for_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o his_o church_n so_o that_o the_o church_n be_v the_o supreme_a and_o certain_a guide_n to_o which_o christ_n direct_v we_o for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a faith_n and_o true_a religion_n second_o because_o abstract_v from_o supernatural_a mean_n reason_n itself_o do_v convince_v as_o much_o for_o the_o church_n be_v universal_a that_o be_v a_o congregation_n of_o christian_n disperse_v through_o the_o whole_a world_n it_o follow_v that_o she_o can_v propose_v a_o falsehood_n see_v that_o the_o christian_n disperse_v in_o so_o many_o country_n as_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v universality_n can_v meet_v together_o and_o agree_v to_o frame_v a_o lie_n and_o therefore_o if_o they_o consent_v together_o that_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v deliver_v unto_o they_o for_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n it_o can_v choose_v but_o be_v so_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o divine_n call_v tradition_n which_o descend_v from_o father_n to_o son_n in_o all_o nation_n where_o the_o catholic_a faith_n be_v profess_v and_o when_o it_o be_v contradict_v or_o call_v in_o to_o doubt_v the_o question_n be_v decide_v by_o a_o general_a council_n which_o be_v a_o congregation_n of_o catholic_a bishop_n and_o doctor_n gather_v together_o out_o of_o all_o part_n where_o the_o church_n be_v disperse_v and_o to_o this_o i_o mean_v to_o universal_a tradition_n no_o heresy_n lay_v claim_v and_o yet_o religion_n be_v so_o ground_v upon_o it_o that_o even_o all_o heretic_n must_v acknowledge_v this_o same_o authority_n for_o the_o receive_n of_o scripture_n so_o that_o we_o see_v how_o the_o universality_n of_o the_o church_n be_v even_o in_o ground_n of_o nature_n and_o abstract_v from_o all_o supernatural_a advantage_n as_o great_a a_o warrant_n as_o can_v be_v that_o what_o the_o church_n teach_v be_v that_o same_o which_o the_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n of_o christ_n disperse_v through_o the_o whole_a world_n have_v teach_v before_o last_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o what_o the_o church_n say_v be_v true_a not_o only_o because_o she_o be_v universal_a but_o also_o because_o she_o be_v invest_v with_o all_o the_o other_o motive_n that_o be_v apt_a to_o beget_v belief_n as_o santity_n unity_n antiquity_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o she_o be_v credible_a of_o herself_o in_o whatsoever_o she_o affirm_v lesson_n xiii_o of_o the_o creed_n 1._o what_o be_v the_o doctrine_n which_o the_o apostle_n and_o

of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n it_o teach_v we_o that_o god_n the_o father_n be_v the_o source_n and_o first_o producer_n of_o all_o thing_n have_v produce_v within_o himself_o the_o other_o two_o person_n and_o out_o of_o himself_o all_o create_a thing_n and_o this_o god_n be_v omnipotent_a because_o he_o can_v do_v all_o that_o he_o will_v and_o have_v make_v of_o nothing_o both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n with_o whatsoever_o be_v in_o they_o as_o well_o angel_n as_o man_n and_o the_o whole_a universal_a world_n and_o be_v able_a to_o create_v more_o and_o more_o world_n without_o end_n 5._o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o they_o also_o omnipotent_a yes_o and_o they_o create_v the_o world_n with_o the_o father_n but_o creation_n and_o omnipotency_n be_v particular_o attribute_v to_o the_o father_n for_o they_o belong_v to_o he_o in_o a_o particular_a manner_n because_o he_o be_v the_o first_o offspring_n of_o all_o production_n within_o himself_o from_o whence_o be_v derive_v all_o creation_n and_o be_v out_o of_o himself_o whereas_o the_o other_o two_o person_n have_v their_o production_n and_o be_v from_o he_o as_o from_o their_o source_n and_o because_o production_n of_o thing_n be_v do_v by_o power_n therefore_o power_n also_o proper_o belong_v to_o he_o who_o be_v the_o first_o origine_fw-la of_o all_o thing_n produce_v so_o wisdom_n be_v

love_n which_o have_v goodness_n for_o its_o object_n 6._o why_o do_v we_o profess_v god_n his_o omnipotency_n in_o the_o first_o article_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v be_v prepare_v to_o believe_v all_o that_o which_o follow_v although_o it_o surpass_v humane_a force_n and_o also_o to_o let_v we_o know_v how_o he_o create_v the_o world_n which_o do_v require_v a_o infinite_a power_n in_o the_o creator_n for_o otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o have_v do_v it_o 7._o why_o do_v we_o say_v i_o believe_v in_o god_n and_o not_o i_o believe_v god_n or_o i_o believe_v a_o god_n there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n betwixt_o believe_v a_o god_n believe_v god_n and_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o first_o do_v import_n only_o i_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o the_o second_o i_o

how_o do_v you_o know_v that_o adam_n do_v not_o make_v himself_o because_o that_o which_o be_v make_v must_v be_v make_v by_o something_o for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o nothing_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o adam_n before_o he_o be_v make_v be_v nothing_o and_o therefore_o he_o can_v not_o make_v himself_o and_o the_o same_o reason_n do_v show_v that_o the_o first_o of_o every_o thinde_n of_o all_o

5._o who_o make_v god_n almighty_a to_o be_v god_n be_v from_o all_o eternity_n and_o have_v no_o beginning_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v make_v for_o nothing_o can_v be_v make_v to_o be_v unless_o

there_o be_v so_o many_o thing_n it_o follow_v that_o that_o thing_n which_o make_v the_o first_o of_o every_o kind_n be_v itself_o from_o all_o eternity_n 7._o wherefore_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o

that_o be_v make_v and_o that_o be_v god_n beside_o nature_n itself_o do_v teach_v we_o that_o the_o maker_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v god_n for_o in_o all_o our_o danger_n and_o misfortune_n we_o do_v

it_o follow_v that_o god_n do_v give_v power_n to_o do_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v or_o can_v be_v do_v and_o consequent_o that_o he_o himself_o can_v do_v whatsoever_o can_v be_v do_v for_o

so_o you_o see_v that_o god_n be_v almighty_a for_o that_o thing_n be_v almighty_a which_o can_v make_v all_o thing_n and_o do_v all_o thing_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n also_o we_o must_v grant_v
