the_o sum_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o chief_a head_n of_o our_o christian_a faith_n catechise_v we_o plain_o in_o six_o main_a ground_n and_o principle_n of_o religion_n i._o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n else_o how_o shall_v he_o be_v one_o ii_o that_o this_o god_n be_v one_o there_o be_v one_o god_n iii_o that_o this_o one_o god_n be_v reconcile_v and_o make_v one_o with_o we_o by_o a_o mediator_n for_o there_o be_v a_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n iv_o that_o this_o mediator_n be_v one_o and_o one_o mediator_n v._o that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v this_o one_o mediator_n vi_o that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v a_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n there_o be_v one_o god_n and_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n thus_o he_o lead_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n from_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v most_o common_o know_v and_o receive_v to_o these_o that_o be_v less_o manifest_a every_o one_o of_o these_o principle_n reveal_v unto_o we_o a_o great_a mystery_n and_o further_a degree_n of_o knowledge_n for_o the_o first_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o man_n the_o second_o that_o this_o god_n be_v one_o be_v not_o so_o common_o know_v as_o the_o former_a for_o the_o gentile_n worship_v a_o multitude_n of_o god_n yet_o be_v it_o general_o confess_v not_o only_o by_o the_o church_n but_o also_o by_o the_o wise_a of_o the_o heathen_a the_o three_o that_o this_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o we_o by_o a_o mediator_n exceed_v the_o knowledge_n of_o all_o gentile_n whatsoever_o who_o have_v nothing_o but_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n for_o it_o be_v not_o know_v by_o nature_n but_o by_o revelation_n from_o god_n yet_o be_v it_o grant_v by_o many_o false_a teacher_n papist_n jew_n and_o also_o other_o who_o receive_v but_o a_o parcel_n of_o god_n word_n but_o the_o four_o that_o this_o mediator_n be_v one_o be_v less_o manifest_a yet_o for_o it_o be_v refuse_v by_o the_o papist_n yet_o receive_v by_o the_o jew_n but_o the_o five_o that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v this_o one_o mediator_n do_v exceed_v their_o faith_n also_o yet_o be_v it_o acknowledge_v by_o many_o heretic_n who_o notwithstanding_o deny_v the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o the_o sixth_o and_o last_o that_o christ_n jesus_n be_v a_o man_n be_v most_o hide_a and_o privy_a as_o be_v the_o proper_a faith_n of_o the_o true_a church_n as_o every_o one_o of_o these_o principle_n reveal_v a_o further_a degree_n of_o knowledge_n so_o also_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o comfort_n the_o first_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n to_o who_o we_o may_v have_v recourse_n in_o the_o day_n of_o trouble_n be_v a_o great_a comfort_n to_o we_o but_o if_o there_o be_v many_o god_n so_o that_o we_o know_v not_o to_o which_o of_o they_o we_o shall_v run_v for_o help_v our_o comfort_n be_v but_o small_a therefore_o the_o second_o principle_n show_v that_o this_o god_n be_v only_o one_o but_o albeit_o there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o only_o one_o god_n yet_o if_o we_o be_v at_o enmity_n with_o he_o we_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o fear_v than_o to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o three_o place_n therefore_o he_o remove_v this_o fear_n show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o mediator_n by_o who_o man_n be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n but_o yet_o if_o there_o be_v not_o one_o but_o many_o mediator_n and_o we_o know_v not_o to_o who_o rather_o to_o betake_v we_o what_o better_o shall_v we_o be_v therefore_o in_o the_o four_o he_o take_v away_o this_o doubt_n also_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v one_o mediator_n but_o though_o there_o be_v but_o one_o mediator_n yet_o what_o if_o he_o be_v unknown_a to_o we_o we_o be_v still_o as_o before_o therefore_o the_o five_o position_n lead_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n unto_o the_o particular_a person_n christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v this_o one_o mediator_n but_o what_o of_o all_o this_o if_o christ_n jesus_n be_v only_a god_n and_o so_o as_o strange_a to_o we_o as_o the_o pattic_a itself_o with_o who_o we_o be_v at_o enmity_n therefore_o to_o make_v our_o joy_n full_a the_o sixth_o principle_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n a_o man_n and_o so_o near_o unto_o we_o not_o in_o place_n for_o he_o be_v contain_v within_o the_o heaven_n according_a to_o his_o manhood_n but_o near_o unto_o we_o in_o blood_n for_o he_o be_v a_o brother_n of_o we_o bone_n of_o our_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o our_o flesh_n and_o near_o unto_o we_o in_o affection_n for_o he_o have_v compassionate_a bowel_n he_o be_v touch_v with_o a_o feel_n of_o our_o infirmity_n 4.15_o
