way_n and_o a_o broad_a road_n which_o be_v well_o follow_v shall_v doubtless_o lead_v they_o to_o heaven_n for_o although_o perhaps_o i_o differ_v from_o other_o protestant_a belief_n yet_o my_o confession_n be_v build_v on_o a_o sure_a foundation_n the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n it_o may_v be_v a_o safe_a guide_n but_o that_o diversity_n of_o opinion_n shall_v breed_v no_o doubt_n in_o religion_n it_o be_v my_o hearty_a wish_n and_o prayer_n that_o we_o be_v all_o of_o one_o mind_n in_o the_o lord_n yet_o because_o this_o be_v difficult_a i_o will_v here_o add_v that_o my_o difference_n from_o other_o protestant_n consist_v in_o omission_n opposition_n or_o addition_n my_o child_n must_v well_o examine_v these_o three_o point_n in_o particular_a and_o to_o help_v they_o in_o their_o judicious_a discussion_n i_o tell_v they_o now_o general_o that_o if_o they_o find_v i_o omit_v or_o oppose_v what_o in_o other_o man_n confession_n want_v good_a authority_n be_v not_o ground_v on_o god_n word_n they_o shall_v do_v well_o both_o to_o approve_v my_o omission_n and_o stand_v with_o i_o in_o such_o opposition_n concerning_o addition_n these_o consist_v either_o of_o

likewise_o in_o the_o second_o concerning_o their_o number_n which_o exceed_v all_o other_o belief_n then_o let_v they_o think_v i_o have_v make_v so_o many_o that_o for_o their_o brevity_n they_o be_v learn_v with_o facility_n for_o be_v short_a they_o may_v like_v fine_a morsel_n easy_o be_v chew_v eat_v digest_v the_o short_a contain_v some_o point_n and_o many_o of_o they_o more_o and_o as_o eat_v a_o bit_n provoke_v often_o the_o appetite_n for_o more_o so_o that_o who_o have_v learn_v one_o article_n of_o my_o belief_n may_v have_v a_o desire_n to_o learn_v more_o i_o have_v link_v they_o all_o together_o often_o ground_v the_o follow_n on_o the_o body_n or_o matter_n of_o the_o precede_n and_o if_o this_o with_o their_o great_a number_n of_o hundred_o and_o three_o score_n shall_v notwithstanding_o the_o brevity_n of_o each_o make_v they_o seem_v long_o and_o tedious_a yet_o hard_o to_o be_v learn_v without_o book_n by_o my_o child_n who_o shall_v perhaps_o have_v but_o ordinary_a wit_n my_o answer_n be_v that_o if_o we_o have_v in_o write_v all_o the_o song_n tale_n riddle_n countrey-wenche_n can_v sing_v and_o tell_v although_o they_o can_v read_v and_o abound_v not_o in_o wit_n it_o may_v appear_v this_o confession_n be_v not_o too_o long_o for_o the_o memory_n of_o all_o those_o who_o instead_o of_o such_o vanity_n apply_v their_o mind_n to_o religious_a study_n and_o to_o who_o it_o be_v free_o give_v to_o know_v the_o mystery_n or_o secret_a thing_n of_o god_n kingdom_n one_o thing_n more_o i_o suspect_v may_v be_v object_v against_o i_o that_o be_v but_o a_o private_a man_n it_o be_v presumption_n in_o i_o to_o make_v a_o public_a confession_n and_o to_o such_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o i_o have_v no_o office_n in_o the_o church_n or_o state_n yet_o as_o i_o be_o a_o husband_n and_o father_n i_o be_o a_o public_a man_n and_o so_o have_v just_a authority_n to_o publish_v and_o declare_v my_o will_n to_o those_o who_o be_v subject_a to_o it_o and_o to_o they_o manifest_v my_o faith_n to_o who_o i_o owe_v economic_a politic_a and_o religious_a instruction_n beside_o this_o objection_n may_v be_v as_o good_a against_o the_o first_o framer_n of_o those_o belief_n and_o confession_n of_o faith_n the_o french_a german_n and_o english_a have_v for_o i_o suppose_v they_o be_v contrive_v by_o some_o particular_a person_n who_o though_o bishop_n or_o minister_n have_v yet_o no_o more_o authority_n than_o i_o to_o impose_v they_o upon_o the_o church_n of_o god_n but_o as_o those_o be_v receive_v by_o general_a consent_n so_o i_o may_v be_v and_o from_o private_a become_v public_a and_o from_o proper_a common_a at_o least_o to_o my_o wife_n and_o posterity_n who_o in_o it_o and_o my_o catechism_n shall_v i_o hope_v find_v

their_o perfection_n and_o felicity_n yet_o lest_o my_o book_n shall_v not_o be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v they_o perfect_a in_o the_o lord_n let_v they_o frequent_o read_v diligent_o study_v and_o

believe_v always_o to_o righteousness_n and_o that_o my_o verbal_a confession_n be_v make_v to_o salvation_n help_v thou_o my_o unbelief_n i_o i_o believe_v and_o confess_v one_o only_a god_n who_o be_v a_o eternal_a infinite_a omniscient_a and_o omnipotent_a spirit_n a_o nature_n most_o holy_a just_a and_o gracious_a a_o essence_n most_o perfect_a simple_a incorporal_a jndivisible_a and_o incomprehensible_a and_o this_o god_n i_o adore_v ii_o i_o believe_v that_o in_o this_o essence_n substance_n or_o nature_n there_o be_v three_o distinct_a person_n complete_a and_o rational_a each_o subsist_v and_o live_v of_o itself_o have_v indivisible_o the_o whole_a divine_a substance_n all_o equal_a in_o eternity_n infinity_n wisdom_n power_n justice_n will_n etc._n etc._n yet_o distinguish_v among_o themselves_o by_o their_o order_n name_n internal_a action_n and_o manner_n of_o work_v external_o iii_o i_o believe_v that_o god_n the_o father_n be_v the_o first_o person_n of_o the_o three_o not_o in_o time_n dignity_n power_n or_o the_o like_a for_o in_o the_o three_o person_n there_o be_v no_o priority_n of_o time_n no_o distinction_n of_o power_n no_o difference_n of_o will_n no_o diversity_n of_o wisdom_n justice_n mercy_n goodness_n etc._n etc._n but_o because_o his_o be_v and_o beginning_n be_v of_o himself_o and_o that_o the_o father_n be_v in_o order_n before_o the_o son_n to_o who_o he_o communicate_v his_o whole_a divine_a essence_n by_o a_o eternal_a and_o incomprehensible_a generation_n and_o with_o he_o to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o a_o spiration_n or_o breathe_v which_o be_v likewise_o eternal_a and_o incomprehensible_a so_o that_o the_o father_n be_v the_o eternal_a begin_n and_o fountain_n of_o the_o trinity_n and_o likewise_o of_o all_o external_a action_n as_o election_n reprobation_n and_o creation_n work_v in_o these_o which_o regard_v the_o creature_n by_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n iv._o i_o believe_v that_o the_o word_n be_v the_o second_o person_n the_o only_a natural_a son_n of_o the_o father_n the_o brightness_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o express_v image_n of_o his_o person_n eternal_o engender_v by_o he_o and_o so_o have_v the_o whole_a divine_a essence_n of_o the_o father_n with_o who_o eternal_o he_o produce_v the_o holy_a spirit_n by_o who_o he_o work_v external_o from_o the_o father_n v._o i_o believe_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o three_o person_n of_o the_o deity_n eternal_o and_o equal_o proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o son_n yet_o not_o as_o from_o two_o

vi_o i_o confess_v that_o when_o i_o speak_v of_o beginning_n in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o godhead_n i_o speak_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n and_o according_a to_o our_o capacity_n for_o i_o believe_v that_o be_v eternal_a they_o can_v have_v no_o beginning_n as_o we_o conceive_v a_o beginning_n in_o respect_n of_o time_n day_n hour_n minute_n moment_n vii_o and_o although_o this_o eternity_n and_o many_o other_o thing_n in_o god_n as_o the_o trinity_n of_o person_n in_o the_o unity_n of_o essence_n the_o generation_n of_o the_o word_n spiration_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o divine_a propriety_n or_o attribute_n as_o infinity_n omniscience_n omnipotence_n mercy_n justice_n be_v much_o above_o reason_n and_o all_o human_a apprehension_n yet_o i_o doubt_v not_o of_o the_o

can_v conceive_v thou_o viii_o i_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o division_n of_o the_o essence_n nor_o confusion_n of_o the_o person_n for_o the_o essence_n or_o be_v nature_n substance_n be_v

and_o spiritual_a sense_n of_o god_n indignation_n which_o i_o believe_v he_o have_v often_o be_v add_v most_o grievous_a torment_n his_o pure_a body_n endure_v from_o his_o birthday_n to_o the_o

for_o all_o so_o that_o they_o need_v no_o other_o oblation_n for_o sin_n then_o that_o which_o christ_n offer_v and_o can_v be_v renew_v because_o he_o die_v no_o more_o nor_o other_o satisfaction_n then_o that_o he_o make_v for_o they_o all_o other_o be_v both_o impossible_a and_o needle_n cli_o christ_n our_o life_n be_v dead_a i_o believe_v that_o his_o body_n be_v bury_v to_o testify_v the_o
