general_a title_n of_o one_o or_o more_o reform_a church_n for_o private_a writing_n be_v not_o always_o so_o well_o consider_v of_o as_o they_o shall_v and_o many_o of_o those_o writing_n also_o there_o be_v which_o most_o of_o we_o never_o once_o see_v or_o read_v in_o all_o our_o life_n and_o therefore_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o indebt_v to_o render_v a_o reckon_n for_o they_o even_o as_o we_o also_o do_v not_o think_v that_o the_o adverse_a part_n will_v take_v upon_o they_o to_o make_v answer_n for_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v private_o pen_v by_o one_o or_o

that_o we_o do_v even_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o writing_n say_v and_o testify_v both_o for_o our_o needs_o sake_n and_o also_o for_o the_o common_a benefit_n that_o we_o in_o no_o respect_n have_v any_o such_o dangerous_a and_o detestable_a belief_n as_o peace-hating_a people_n ascribe_v unto_o us._n chap._n ii_o what_o our_o faith_n be_v in_o very_a truth_n now_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v further_o demand_v what_o then_o be_v our_o faith_n indeed_o the_o which_o we_o willing_o acknowledge_v then_o be_v this_o our_o answer_n as_o follow_v we_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v one_o only_o true_a god_n god_n of_o god_n the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n with_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o according_o there_o be_v three_o distinct_a person_n in_o that_o one_o godly_a essence_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o the_o same_o one_o god_n be_v everlasting_a and_o almighty_a and_o can_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_n also_o that_o he_o be_v infinite_a and_o according_o be_v present_v in_o all_o place_n at_o one_o time_n and_o see_v hear_v and_o know_v all_o thing_n also_o that_o he_o be_v just_a and_o punish_v no_o man_n without_o desert_n also_o that_o he_o be_v merciful_a and_o have_v no_o delight_n in_o the_o death_n of_o sinner_n but_o that_o they_o shall_v repent_v themselves_o and_o live_v we_o believe_v further_o that_o the_o same_o one_o true_a god_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o that_o therein_o be_v of_o nothing_o creation_n of_o the_o creation_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o god_n sustain_v and_o rule_v all_o thing_n which_o he_o create_v and_o that_o he_o have_v they_o so_o in_o his_o hand_n god_n of_o the_o s●_n knowledge_n of_o god_n that_o no_o creature_n can_v stir_v or_o move_v itself_o without_o his_o will_n and_o therefore_o nothing_o can_v come_v to_o pass_v without_o his_o permission_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n also_o all_o that_o god_n do_v at_o present_a or_o permit_v to_o come_v to_o pass_v he_o foreknow_v it_o from_o everlasting_a and_o with_o well_o bethink_v council_n have_v determine_v that_o he_o even_o so_o will_v do_v it_o or_o permit_v it_o also_o that_o he_o do_v not_o determine_v to_o permit_v any_o wicked_a thing_n to_o come_v to_o pass_v but_o that_o which_o he_o can_v and_o will_v turn_v to_o a_o good_a end_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o in_o the_o beginning_n god_n create_v all_o the_o angel_n and_o man_n holy_a and_o good_a and_o especial_o man_n in_o his_o likeness_n sin_n of_o the_o fall_n of_o angel_n and_o man_n and_o of_o original_a sin_n and_o to_o bless_a immortality_n but_o they_o to_o wit_n the_o angel_n and_o the_o two_o first_o of_o mankind_n do_v short_o after_o their_o creation_n fall_v from_o god_n their_o creator_n and_o have_v by_o such_o their_o fall_n bring_v not_o only_o upon_o themselves_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n but_o also_o such_o a_o pollution_n of_o their_o nature_n that_o now_o they_o can_v no_o more_o either_o will_n or_o accomplish_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a which_o pollution_n fall_v on_o the_o lose_a angel_n altogether_o at_o one_o tim_fw-la but_o mankind_n inherit_v such_o defilement_n together_o with_o the_o guiltiness_n both_o of_o the_o first_o and_o second_o death_n by_o propagation_n one_o from_o another_o from_o whence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o same_o corruption_n of_o mankind_n be_v call_v original_a sin_n we_o believe_v further_o though_o such_o a_o fearful_a fall_n both_o of_o angel_n and_o man_n fall_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o man_n fall_n can_v not_o have_v come_v to_o pass_v without_o god_n permission_n and_o that_o he_o appoint_v nothing_o without_o good_a consideration_n yet_o be_v not_o the_o fault_n of_o this_o fall_n in_o any_o manner_n to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o he_o consider_v that_o he_o so_o create_v the_o angel_n and_o man_n that_o they_o have_v free_a will_n to_o turn_v to_o good_a as_o well_o as_o to_o bad_a we_o believe_v further_o that_o it_o become_v not_o poor_a creature_n to_o dispute_v with_o god_n wherefore_o he_o create_v the_o angel_n and_o man_n so_o that_o they_o can_v fall_v also_o wherefore_o he_o hinder_v not_o such_o a_o fall_n whereas_o he_o can_v well_o have_v do_v it_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o his_o will_n be_v ever_o just_a and_o good_a though_o we_o always_o understand_v it_o not_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v 3.22_o rom._n 11.32_o gal._n 3.22_o that_o god_n have_v shut_v up_o all_o under_o unbelief_n or_o under_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n on_o all_o that_o be_v that_o no_o man_n may_v be_v save_v but_o mere_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n also_o 9.22.23_o rom._n 9.22.23_o what_o and_o if_o god_n will_v to_o show_v his_o wrath_n and_o to_o make_v his_o power_n know_v suffer_v with_o long_a patience_n the_o vessel_n of_o wrath_n prepare_v to_o destruction_n and_o that_o he_o may_v declare_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o glory_n upon_o the_o vessel_n of_o mercy_n which_o he_o have_v prepare_v unto_o glory_n by_o this_o aught_o we_o in_o all_o reason_n to_o let_v it_o so_o remain_v we_o believe_v further_o that_o the_o fall_v angel_n and_o and_o man_n can_v not_o free_v themselves_o from_o the_o almighty_a governance_n of_o but_o that_o they_o on_o the_o one_o side_n as_o well_o as_o on_o the_o other_o be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o their_o wickedness_n can_v otherwise_o break_v out_o then_o as_o god_n have_v permit_v it_o and_o this_o our_o faith_n be_v our_o great_a comfort_n on_o earth_n for_o and_o if_o the_o wicked_a angel_n &_o man_n have_v the_o bridle_n in_o their_o own_o power_n where_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o abide_v for_o they_o we_o believe_v further_o that_o though_o god_n permit_v many_o sin_n in_o the_o fall_v angel_n and_o man_n and_o that_o he_o use_v oftentimes_o their_o sinful_a action_n to_o accomplish_v his_o holy_a work_n as_o he_o do_v the_o abominable_a deed_n of_o absalon_n to_o the_o punishment_n of_o david_n and_o the_o treason_n of_o judas_n to_o the_o freedom_n of_o mankind_n also_o though_o he_o often_o punish_v sin_n by_o sin_n and_o blind_a and_o harden_v those_o common_o at_o last_o who_o with_o see_v eye_n will_v yet_o be_v blind_a as_o former_o he_o do_v pharaoh_n yet_o nevertheless_o he_o of_o himself_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o sin_n much_o less_o do_v he_o provoke_v or_o drive_v any_o man_n thereunto_o but_o that_o the_o precedent_n work_v cause_n of_o all_o sin_n which_o go_v before_o be_v only_o and_o alone_o the_o free_a and_o unforced_a will_n of_o wicked_a angel_n and_o man_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o god_n have_v adjudge_v the_o fall_v angel_n to_o everlasting_a fire_n without_o any_o grace_n or_o mercy_n to_o terrify_v we_o thereby_o that_o we_o make_v not_o a_o jest_n of_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o god_n have_v indeed_o just_a cause_n and_o power_n also_o to_o push_v down_o the_o fall_v man_n into_o everlasting_a hellish_a fire_n without_o any_o grace_n or_o mercy_n but_o he_o have_v not_o do_v it_o but_o have_v offer_v grace_n again_o to_o man_n and_o that_o so_o he_o may_v show_v they_o mercy_n without_o breach_n of_o his_o justice_n he_o ordain_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n to_o be_v our_o surety_n and_o mediator_n and_o to_o take_v the_o punishment_n upon_o he_o which_o we_o deserve_v and_o so_o deliver_v we_o from_o everlasting_a well_o deserve_a death_n by_o his_o innocent_a death_n to_o accomplish_v the_o say_a council_n and_o will_n of_o god_n the_o
