To the Christian Reader I Can not but earnestly lament good christan Reader as I hope thou dost with me these miserable times wherein we liue behoulding the great number already growne and daily encreasing of wicked atheists superstitious papists prophane wordlings carnall gospellers vaine and idle professors and great multitudes of ignorant people euen in the principles of religion in this land Notwithstanding the gospel hath beene so long plentifully preached amongst vs so many godly books published both of the interpretation of scriptures and also of other learned and holy treatises by sundry worthy men so many excellent and profitable catechismes set forth and fitted for teaching the grounds of religion to all sorts of people So as we may iustly weepe ouer cities townes and villages as the Lord Iesus did ouer Ierusalem Luc. 19.42 Oh that you had known euen in this your day those things that belong vnto your peace But now are they hid from your eyes for ah alas who seeth not almost in all places the mightie sinnes of the land crying for vengance That that may iustly be pronounced vnto vs which the prophet denounceth to Israel Hosea 4.1 Heare the word of the lord O people of England The lord hath a controuersie with the inhabitants of the land because ther is no truth no mercie no knowledge of God in the land by swearing and lying and stealing and killing and whoring they breake out and blood toucheth blood Wherefore it is greatly to be feared that seeing wisedome hath cryed vnto vs so long Pro. 1.20.25.26 c. and vttered her words so lowd abroad in the streets in the assemblies in citties and townes and all sorts haue refused none would regard her calling least shee also laugh at our distruction and mocke when our feare commeth like a sodaine desolation and our destruction like a whirlewind and a tempest to sweepe vs away headlong into the gulfe of all miseries and calamities The Lord in mercie raise vs vp out of our deadly sleepe of sinnes and securitie that we may awake to liue righteously and sinne no longer Many of vs haue in our mouths vainly boasting as the people of Israel Ier. 7.4 the temple of the Lord the temple of the Lord we haue the temple of the lord so wee the gospell of Christ the gospel of Christ we haue the gospel of Christ but ah alas many thousands of vs knowe nothing what the gospell meaneth A multitude of people throughout the land haue not yet learned the very beginnings of the doctrines of Christ of repentance from dead works of faith towards God of baptisme of laying on of hands of the resurrection from the dead and of eternall iudgement nay not so much as what sinne is or how they becam sinners what the punishment of sinne is or how they may scape it Many thousands know nothing what sinnes are forbidden what duties are required in any of the commandements they vnderstand not any article of the faith aright any petition of the Lords praier the meaning of the sacraments or any thing that belongeth to a christian life O that we would learne in time to repent and turne vnto the lord Ier. 4.4 before his wrath breake forth vpon vs like fire and burne that none can quench it for the wickednes of our inuentions Euen this were one good meanes if all parents and householders would set apart some howre euery day to pray with their children and seruants vse some for catechisme to enforme themselues and their familie in the grounds and principles of religion Deut. 6.6.7.8 11.18.19 Ephes 6.4 Genes 18.19 Iosu 24.15 Act. 10.21 as they are bound in duty by the commandements of the Lord and taught by the example of Godly fathers and howseholders in the scriptures namely Abraham Iosua and noble Cornelius So should themselues their children their seruants bee better prepared and fitted to vnderstand the word of God the doctrines thereof deliuered vnto them by their godly pastors and ministers which now they heare most vnprofitably and after much and long teaching learne nothing at all Amonge other catechismes I haue found by long experience this one to bee of very fit and profitable vse for the instruction of a family beeing plaine and easie and not longer then may euery seauen daies be repeated through being fitly deuided For the questions concerning fasting and gouerment may bee omitted except there bee speciall occasion this may bee done and praier ioyned withall in litle more then halfe an hower at one time I confesse some good part of this was published many yeares since gathered out of another cathechisme by a godly and reuerent preacher M. Moore of Norwich which I haue altered and enlarged in many places with such questions and answers as I thought meete for the instruction of the simple and vnlearned vnto which I haue added certaine praiers for the helpe of such as are not yet able to conceiue a prayer of themselues I wish thee good Reader whosoeuer wilt vse it to examine with the doctrines the places of scripture quoted some of them at the least though not all otherwise thou shalt depriue thy selfe of a great benefit and comfort This poore mite amid my ordinarie labours at the request of some freinds I haue cast into the Lords treasurie If thou profitt by it remember me in thy praiers And so I commend thee to god and to the word of his grace who is able to build further and to giue thee an inheritance among them which are sanctified And the Lord giue thee vnderstanding to growe in grace in the sound knowledge of our Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ to whome with the father and the holy Ghost be ascribed all glory and praise power maiestie and dominion now henceforth and for euermore Thy poore louing brother in Christ Iames Leech Question VVHat ought euery man first cheifely to labour for all the daies of his life An.
